River Liffey

The River Liffey (Irish: ''An Life'') is a river in Ireland, which flows through the centre of Dublin. Its major tributaries include the River Dodder, the River Poddle and the River Camac. The river supplies much of Dublin's water, and a range of recreational opportunities.〔(River Liffey Information ) Retrieved 25 January 2013.〕
==Name==
The river was previously named ''An Ruirthech'', meaning "fast (or strong) runner". The word ''Liphe'' (or ''Life'') referred originally to the name of the plain through which the river ran, but eventually came to refer to the river itself.〔Byrne, F. J. 1973. Irish Kings and High-Kings. Dublin. p.150〕 It was also known as the Anna Liffey,〔As indicated by published in 1831〕 possibly from an anglicisation of ''Abhainn na Life,'' the Irish phrase that translates into English as ''River Liffey.''〔(Seanad Éireann – Vol 159, May, 1999 – Motion on National Archives – David Norris (senator and Trinity lecturer) referencing Georgian Society records )〕
