Notes
  • [NOTES: this is not the ‘cattle’ questionnaire itself but a letter that most probably accompanied it (see the first sentence: ‘Seo am pàipear agus tha e ’na thìde a chur a steach’). It contains a few additional words as well as a list of all the nouns that presumably appeared in the questionnaire with their gender (E for masculine and I for feminine). The questionnaire itself seems to be missing.]
