    Hey dudes, just a quick hopefully easy question about dialects here.. I've heard 'ag tiocht' being said by people in Donegal and Connemara.. is it just in Munster that they would say 'ag teacht'?

    Thanks.. again! :)

    "Ag tíocht" is confined to Galway/Mayo. Never heard it used in Ulster where "Ag teacht" is widespread as it is in Munster.

    Yes, as far as I know it is restricted to Connaught.
