beann
Ciall nó Míniú (BÉARLA): a point, a peak, a cliff, the gable of a house
Sampla(í) Úsáide: Ní saor go beinn, the test of a mason is the gable. Thit sé le beinn, he fell down a cliff. Tá sé i nglas beinne, he is trapped on a ledge on the face of a cliff. Níl beinn agam air, I am independent of him. Níl beinn ar bith ar a chuid oibre aige, he does not give a thought to his work. Tá beinn ar a anam aige, he is a god-fearing man.

Beir mo bheannacht chuige, Remember me to him. Ár mbeannacht leis an am a bhí ann, God be with the good old times. Beannacht agat, good-bye (when leaving). Beannacht leat, Good-bye (to the person who is leaving).

Ní raibh ann ach gur bheannaigh sé, he merely looked in. Le sin féin bheannaigh Máire, just at that time Máire came in. Bheannaigh Colum Cille an t-oileán, Colum Cille blessed the island.
