Irish

Pronunciation

IPA^(key): /ˈtʲɾʲiːnˠəɾˠ/

Particle

trínar (form used before non-past tenses trína) (used before a past tense; triggers lenition of a following consonant except in the autonomous form)

through which/whom
an doras trínar chuaigh mé isteach ― the door through which I went in

Usage notes

Especially in the spoken language, it is more common to use the indirect relative particle ar with a resumptive prepositional pronoun:

an doras ar chuaigh mé isteach tríd ― the door I went in through

Particle

trínar (form used before a vowel in the present/future trínarb, form used before a vowel in the past/conditional trínarbh) (used before a consonant sound; triggers lenition in the past/conditional)

through which/whom is
an seomra trínar mian liom siúl ― the room through which I want to walk
through which/whom was/would be
tír trínar mhaith liom taisteal ― a country through which I would like to travel

Usage notes

Here again, it is more common, especially in the spoken language, to use the indirect relative particle ar with a resumptive prepositional pronoun:

an seomra ar mian liom siúl tríd ― the room I want to walk through

tír ar mhaith liom taisteal tríthi ― a country I would like to travel through
