Below are some papers which are not intended for formal publication in anything much like their current form. They are made available in the hope that they might be useful or interesting.

• `A Language at the Edge; Irish and the Theory of Grammar,' The text (lightly revised and edited) for a talk prepared for presentation at the UNC Linguistics Colloquium, March 24th 2007.
• `Irish Nominal Syntax 1: Demonstratives.' An intial exploration of the syntax of demonstrative expressions in Irish.
• `Mutation and Innovation in Northern Irish.' The morphophonology of irregular verbs in Irish, and an argument that learners of a language postulate underlying forms for members of a paradigm which correspond to no pronounced form.
• `Unravelling the Threads,' The text of a talk (lightly revised and edited) presented to the annual meeting of the Irish Association for Applied Linguistics (IRAAL) held at Trinity College Dublin on December 7th 2004.
