Na Carachtair: Fionnuala (Leaving Cert Irish): Flashcards

Is í Fionnuala an príomhcharachtar sa scéal agus an duine is sine de chlann Lir. (Fionnuala is the main character in the story and the eldest of Lir's children.)

Tá sí láidir, grámhar agus cróga – tugann sí aire dá triúr deartháireacha le linn na 900 mbliana. (She is strong, loving and brave – she takes care of her three brothers during the 900 years.)

Tá cáil uirthi mar shiombail den chaoinfhulaingt agus den íobairt sa litríocht Ghaelach. Glacann sí lena cinniúint go haibí agus go húmhal. (She is regarded as a symbol of quiet endurance and sacrifice in Irish literature. She accepts her fate with maturity and humility.)
