Chuir me cosc leis. - I restrained him, I stopped him. Coisc mo mháthair mé dul ag snámh. Chuireadh cosc leis. - He was stopped 7rl. Thá na h-uain coiscithe - The lambs are "weaned".
stopping, hindrance, preventing, restraint. Chuir mé cosc lena rúide, I put a stop to his gallop. Is mó an cosc ná an congnamh é, he, it, is more of a hindrance than a help.
Coscadh do nuaidheachta, appeasing one’s longing for novelties. Níl aon dhuine lena chosc, there is no one to stop, or hinder him. Coscadh ort! Will you shut your mouth!
