Asal in Ireland means the donkey sort of ass not the ass sort of ass!
Like the Dutch "ezel" (which is the same word used in Dutch for painting-supporters which in English are called "easel").
That's funny, in art school we used a bench with a back that we called 'donkeys'
That sounded silly until I remembered English has "sawhorse."
At least the sawhorse resembles a horse :)
Should be "tón" or something
Tóin is arse. Tón is tone.
You're right and I can't spell, is tusa an fíorshaoi de na dtóinenna.
