QUIZ: You’ll find it hard to name all these towns from their Irish name (part 2)

Eric Lalor

Irish Geography quiz

It’s a tough task to get full marks here.

Just like our first edition of this quiz, this is not a walk in the park.

We’ve all seen Irish road signs and the Irish translation of the towns or counties you are travelling to or from.

Some seem to make sense, others less so.

An example being Béal Feirste, which is Irish for Belfast. Ah yes, I can see the similarity there. However, along comes Baile Átha Cliath, the Irish for Dublin, and immediately all bets are off.

We’ve tried not to give you many curveballs like the one above. These towns are straightforward enough, yet tough enough to have you scratching your head at some.

Can you name all 20 towns in the four minutes?
