Emain Ablach : ウィキペディア英語版 | Emain Ablach Emain Ablach (also Emne; Middle Irish Emhain Abhlach or Eamhna; meaning "Emhain of the Apples") is the name of a mythical island paradise in Irish mythology. It is often regarded as the realm of the sea god Manannán Mac Lir and identified with either the Isle of Man or the Isle of Arran. According to the medieval Irish poem ''Baile Suthain Sith Eamhna'', the god Lug Lamfada was reared in Emain Ablach. == Etymology == Emain/Emne is of uncertain etymology (though it may be compared with the place name Emain Macha in Ireland, recorded as Isamnion in Ptolemy's 2nd century AD Geography, which Celticist Heinrich Wagner would translate as "what is moving by itself rapidly, the stream", derived from the Proto-Indo-European root '' *eis-'' "to move rapidly"〔Wagner, p. 13.〕). Ablach means "of the apples/fruits" in Old Irish.
