Scarabhin na cuaiche? .. one cuckoo

Scarabhin na gcuacha?.. plural cuckoos (measaim!)

Níor chuala mé riamh an focal SCARABHIN go dtí inniú ar maidin sa rang Gaeilge!

 Garbh-shíon na gCuach....  " rough-weather (period) of the cuckoos"......literally ~     
    a bad spell that comes between Winter and Spring.

  ['S' at the beginning  a bit of   'Is'  (=It is) or the conjunction 'agus' (and)]
