‘Nickname’ is not ‘nick’ + ‘name.’ It was originally ‘ekename.’ ‘Eke’ was the Middle English word for “also” or “in addition.” Since ‘ekename’ began with a vowel, people used ‘an’ before it. Over time, 'an ekename' became 'a nickname.'
#ASM's #SchoolCommunity continues to admire the sketches of our future school building. A beautiful vision to look forward to from Coady Architects. Parents/guardians of the prospective First Years of 2026 can enjoy these sketches on a grander scale at our #OpenNight.
Banish the Bard? Never! Our colleague, Dr Ellen Howley, appeared on @LunchtimeLiveNT this afternoon to discuss why we should still study Shakespeare for Leaving Cert. Listen back here⬇️ @DCU @HumanitiesDCU open.spotify.com/episode/5NBZ8J…

@Mr_PHuff Hi Patrick, Sive is now available in Ukrainian, if you have any students for it. Dee
A very short playlist on the poetry of Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin that I can use when reading her work with Leaving Cert. English. This is another one where all recommendations are welcome! #EdChatIE youtube.com/playlist?list=…
This playlist is very incomplete - it's harder to find lots of stuff on some of the modern poets on the list! That said, here are a few bits on the poetry of Tracy K. Smith. #EdChatIE youtube.com/playlist?list=…
A playlist of readings, etc. that I draw from when looking at the work of W.B. Yeats with Leaving Cert. English. Another work in progress. #EdChatIE youtube.com/playlist?list=…
This playlist contains a few interviews with Katherine Rundell on the poetry of John Donne, as well as readings, and a song I use to introduce 'The Flea'. Thoughts appreciated! 😂 #EdChatIE youtube.com/playlist?list=…
