Today in "my modern Irish is Ulster Irish but my medieval Irish is Munster Irish", I discovered I pronounce acallam as if it were agallamh (agaloo), but I pronounce immacallam as immagaluv. I have no idea why my brain gives one an -uv ending and one an -oo ending, but it's just one more fun detail about having horrible frankengaeilge.
#i learned my medieval irish from munster and conamara speakers#and my modern irish from ulster speakers except with the occasional munster#so it's a mess frankly#irish
