"Ath" - A ford; any part of a river that is fordable
"Tri" - Three
"Uillt" - A burn, A mountain stream
If this be written as one word
it ought to be written with a
hyphen for two reasons - First
The compound word has two
accents - Second The writing it
one word would be a violation
of the rule "Leathan ri Leathan", &c.
Also the form of the article an should
be used in the gen. [genitive] mas. [masculine] before a word
beginning with t.
