Irish protocol requires the women to give themselves a greater toast.
However, to the delight of beginners and the despondency of purists, the dative form of the noun has practically disappeared from the Irish language. It survives in some old sayings. Eclipsis occurs in certain grammatical contexts when an initial consonant is phonetically replaced by another consonant. The consonant 'b' is always eclipsed by the consonant 'm'. Eclipsis means that the 'm' is now pronounced instead of the 'b' in 'go mbeire' making the eclipsed 'b' silent.
