My isn't the greatest, but the "tír" in "" is clearly missing a fada. It's a nonsense.
Also, it sounds like a new far-right political party (it all but means " is full").
Probably could have thought it through a bit more, and maybe hired a gaeilgeoir…

In Irish (Gaelgie) fadas make a huge difference.

They are literally the difference between cake and shit.
Cáca
Caca

is certainly no cake with the missing fada.

@AineL30 @joemagraollaigh Fadas are so special and transformative. One fada can alter the entire meaning of a word and/or turn a proper noun into a common noun or vice versa. What rubbish from them. They made a mistake and should own it.

Tirlán clarifies why the fada was left off Tir..says it was to simplify the name and "make it more relevant in a global context”. The other fada was included as "a distinct Irish reference" Company also looked at other brands with accents..like Nescafé
