ingor

  1. impious
    • c. 800–825, Diarmait, Milan Glosses on the Psalms, published in Thesaurus Palaeohibernicus (reprinted 1987, Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies), edited and with translations by Whitley Stokes and John Strachan, vol. I, pp. 7–483, Ml. 56b15
      Ar chuingid inna sóinmech i mbïat ind ingoir, as·berat-som nád ndignet inna degnímu, húare is hi fochaidib bíthir hi suidib, ⁊ du·ngénat immurgu inna du⟨á⟩lchi, air is sóinmige ad·chotar tri sui{i}dib.
      Because of seeking the prosperity in which the impious are, they say that they will not do the good deeds, since it is in tribulations that one is in regard to these [good deeds], and that, however, they will engage in (lit. do) the vices, for it is prosperity that is obtained through these [vices].

Etymology 2

[edit]

From Latin ancora; during the borrowing, the middle vowel raised to /u/, triggering the raising of /a/ to /i/ (under Schrijver's assumptions) or blocking the re-lowering to **an- by a-affection (under McCone's assumptions).
