translation to gaelic please

[juliemc]

can someone please tell me what the gaelic is to describe the west coast of scotland(edinburugh). Does the same word have any other meaning

I don't have the Gaelic, but I do have access to maps. Edinburgh is on the east coast of Scotland.

[Scottish_Republican]

Edinburgh is Dun Eideann (Doon Ehjun)

West Coast is Oirthir an Iar (there are several other words for coast)

[Steaphan]

while oirthir is one choice, "costa" seems to be most commonly used from listening to the radio, and on television programs etc.

"Cost' an Iar"

[Scottish_Republican]

""costa" seems to be most commonly used from listening to the radio, and on television programs etc."

By tv presenters who spend too much time in Benidorm.

Woooo, beagan farmad ort, a bheil?
