Transition From Druid Akkadian To Spoken Old Irish (700's-800's CE)

(November 16, 2024) Old Irish seems to be a mix of Akkadian phrases, Indo-European, and Latin with a very high proportion of Akkadian phrases. These Akkadian phrases became Old Irish words in their own right. This transition is shown by how Irish monks mixed in their Old Irish native words with Latin when they wrote Christian commentaries. Most of these old books survive on the continent of Europe where they were preserved by not being read much.

These glosses were collected from Whitley and Strachan and published in 1903. Unfortunately, their transcriptions of the larger text into modern English letters was mostly unsuccessful with it being a pioneering work and the transcriptions being done by a variety of scholars living nearby to the European texts. Photos of most of these early Old Irish texts do not yet exist on the internet.

(November 24, 2024) This manuscript formerly belonged to the Monastery of Reichenau and is now in the Hof und Landesbibliothek at Carlsruhe, where it is numbered Codex Augiensis cxcv. It consists of 47 leaves. This copy is dated to the 800's CE. 

Reichenau Abbey was a Benedictine monastery on Reichenau Island in Lake Constance on the Rhine river trade route in Southern Germany. It was founded in 724 by the itinerant Saint Pirmin, who is said to have fled Visigothic Spain ahead of the Moorish invaders.

The Soliloquies of Augustine is a two-book document written in 386–387 CE by the Christian theologian Augustine of Hippo. The book has the form of an "inner dialogue" in which questions are posed, discussions take place and answers are provided, leading to self-knowledge. Hippo Regius (also known as Hippo or Hippone) is the ancient name of the modern city of Annaba, Algeria. It served as an important western maritime city for the Phoenicians, Berbers, and Romans.

This book, or at least this copy, was aimed at Irish monks which explains the heavy use of Old Irish phrases in the text.

The Irish Word and Phrase Glosses

The translation procedure consists of 4 phases:

Irish word or phrase used in main text of book = Book's gloss describing the word = modern eDIL's definition (usually based on these glosses) = Druid Akkadian translation

1. opad = rejection = rejection = APu-ADu = "to veil of instigator (Thu)"

2. firinne = righteousness = righteousness = Pu-IRu-INu-Nu-E = "To open the astrological-fate-powers of the moon-eye making ineffective it revelations."

3. bith ingabal = a perpetual reproach = because of reproach = Bu-IṬu  INu-Gi-ABu-ALu  = To nourish stickiness   of the Moon-Eye's energy for the priests of Alu (God)

Irish phrases 2 and 3 above can now be correctly translated together with their Akkadian words as: "Justice, that is, for the (Pagan) foreigners, involves, opening the astrological-fate-powers of the moon-eye (Su) to make ineffective its revelations, for the apostles and of all the righteous to nourish the stickiness of the Moon-Eye's energy by the priests of Alu (God) in the world."

4. in mess duchoaid,  fordiabul,  is he rigas forru = the judgment that has been passed upon the Devil is that which will be passed upon them = (not translatable)

=

4. 1. INu:  Mu-EṢu-Ṣu  Du-U-Ḫu'u-A-IDu,  Pa'u-Ru-Du-Ya-ABu-WaLu (ALu),  IŠu  Ḫu-E  Ru-IGu-AŠu  Pa'u-Ru-ReWu 

=

1. The Moon-Eye (Su): Fertility-fluids will shed the activity being manifested with the astrological-owls for those life-channels,  The network-birds eagle-vultures will not manifest for the priests of Alu (God),  Confusion  makes-ineffective Hu.  The eagle-vultures spew-forth the eyes-of-fate (planets). The network-bird's eagle-vultures are being shepherded.

Su can be the result of splitting-off   Hu's irrigation-network and chaos.  Emotional channeling cannot manifest starvation.

The Revealer (Kate/Hekate) and the Controllers (Su, Selu/Selene are enemies. Manifestations can make ineffective the emotion-owls. Reveal the Reed-Boat's (Ayu) fertility-fluids for that. Nourishments for the Celestial-Healer (Selu) and lacking Ayu's energy curse. Involvement of the attendants (owls) does not affect the fertility-fluids. Those filterers of fluids (owls) are involved with Ayu. Alu's manifestations (form manifestations) will result in  celestial-healing.

The form-manifestation channels are being redirected. Selu/Selene's considerations water the motivating eyes-of-fate (planets). Activate Alu's pasture (starry night sky). Don't emotionally-affect Hu, Don't do astrology-magic for Hu's ineffectiveness. Prod the desires for the attention of Thu.  Getting upset will control the emotions.

The Controllers (Su and Selu/Selene) instigate the fertility-fluids. Are not the Controllers revealing Ayu's involvement with the revelations redirecting the form-manifestations? The instigators of the eagle-vultures can emotionally-trigger Thu's harbor (gathering place). Involve the weavers (Druid Vates) to filter the nourishments resulting from astrology-magic. Manifestations from the irrigation-network's attendants (owls and eagle-vultures) will make-impressions on the irrigation-network's astrology-magic with Ayu not being energized
