Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:IPA-ga), Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:IPA-gd) or Шаблон:Lang (Шаблон:IPA-gv) is a Gaelic word meaning "welcome".[1]

This word appears in the Irish phrase Шаблон:Wikt-lang (a hundred thousand welcomes) as well as the similar Scottish phrase Шаблон:Lang and the Manx Шаблон:Lang. It also occurs in the name of Fáilte Ireland and its predecessor organization, Bord Fáilte (Board of Welcome). Fáilte Towers, an RTÉ reality programme broadcast in Ireland in 2008, incorporates this word in its name as well.[2][3]

The accent above the a is a diacritic known in Irish as the Шаблон:Lang (literally, long stretching, as it lengthens the vowel; often called just the Шаблон:Lang in English), and as the Шаблон:Lang (pronounced Шаблон:IPA-gd) in Scottish Gaelic.
