As a resource, the glossary will be able to assist practitioners with understanding the sectarian language that they are most likely to encounter during service delivery. Practitioners? That's a strange word to use. THe Police Force of Northern Ireland has a list of appropriate and inappropriate language. If anyone, they will know what certain terms mean ... Link makes the guide available for Download, it ain't online directly any longer: https://www.google.de/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjMnI-c9YrPAhXI0xoKHeexAeYQFggeMAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.psni.police.uk%2Fglobalassets%2Fadvice--information%2Four-publications%2Fdisclosure-logs%2F2009%2Fhuman-resources%2Fappropriate_inappropriate_language.pdf&usg=AFQjCNGRDioePJqRNHL39unUo95Fsn6RsQ&sig2=22yxrfJ1vRQnuAuc0788IA Meanwhile ... Fenian Takes origins from the Fianna. In Gaelic Ireland these were warrior bands of young men who lived apart from society. Fenian was later adopted as an umbrella term for the Fenian Brotherhood and the Irish Republican Brotherhood, fraternal organisations dedicated to the establishment of an independent Irish Republic in the 19th and early 20th century. A sectarian term used to describe Irish, Catholics or fans of Celtic F.C. First, it is interesting that this is a sectarian word whereas Hun isn't. Just check the PFNI's article on this. Secondly ... James MacKillop (the authority on matters Celtic (with K) mythology) - Oxford Dictionary of Celtic Mythology: FENIAN - Neologism (DB, i.e., a new meaning for an older word) coined in 1804 by charlatan scholar Col. Charles Vallancey. Although apparently derived from Féni, a name for early, landed freeholders, Vallancey used it as an anglicization for fianna (DB, i.e., "warrior band"). In many 19th century writers, e.g. Sir Walter Scott, Fenian pertains to stories of Fionn mac Cumhaill. The ambiguous reference to both fianna and Fionn persists in the naming of the Fenian Cycle. In 1858 "Fenian" was adopted as an alternate name for the Irish Republican Brotherhood, a secret revolutionary society dedicated to the overthrow of English authority in Ireland. Never fully quashed, Fenian activity in the British Isles and North Amercia peaked in 1866-7. In the 20th century "Fenian" popularly denotes Republican anti-British activity, especially in the six counties of Ulster, still part of the United Kingdom. NB: While speaking about them, do they actually have an entry about the Provisional IRA? Edited September 20, 2016 by der Berliner 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,548 Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Dear oh dear.... The entry under "the bouncy"! And only they call their team" God's 11", really? And, and, and etc. A list re bigotry created by a bigot at first (and last) glance. The main problem that remains is that you don't get something or someone official saying something about this. As I noted above, the Police Force of Northern Ireland have a guide for their folks, probably for ages. How they actually deal with it is something for Ulstermen to answer. But as long as others and usually "our enemies" determine what is sectarian, "we" are losing out. For as we can see every other day, the term sectarian is loosely wielded as a club against nigh anything we sing or do, whereas they go on and on about IRA and republican stuff and hardly a whisper can be heard. Speak about a compliant media (moct of which probably don't care about the issue, but are generally of an anti-Rangers persuation and welcome any stick they can beat us with. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
