Population: 2,339 ???????
: I agree. The figure on the Letterkenny page is 15,062 so cannot possibly be under 3k for the whole county Jaqian (talk) 09:33, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

message: The transcription had the 1st syllable as dunn rather than don in the English pronunciation. I can only confirm the later. Anyone know differently? kwami (talk) 08:38, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Its doon in Irish but don as  in done. I'm from Dublin and we'd say it as done-e-gall Jaqian (talk) 09:41, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

message: IvanScrooge98 changed the pronunciation of Donegal (town) in its heading from   to  . However, I think that the last syllable should be “GAWL”, not ”AWL”. This appears to be more in conformance to the pronounciation at logainm.ie. --AFBorchert (talk) 12:04, 27 August 2023 (UTC)

replies: text:  Thanks for the response. I'm not an IPA expert, I just happen to know how the local people pronounce it. I have to admit that due to my inferior eyes I initially misread “ɪ” for an ”r” but I also objected to the last syllable as described. --AFBorchert (talk) 12:22, 27 August 2023 (UTC)
