How do you pronounce the irish name Tadhg?



TIEG





Tadhg is from the Irish language. The "adh" is a diphthong that is pronounced like the "i" in the English word "Tiger". The name is pronounced as if pronouncing "Tiger" and dropping the "er".
Reply:If it says pronounce like "tigue" then yes, it's like "teeg" ... However, I would want to say that it's "Tah-jeh" ... like a silent 'd'. It's a pretty cool name actually! Once we can figure out how to say it... :)
Reply:I'm from Ireland and i know quite a few Tadhgs.


Try saying 'Thai' without the 'th' sound, so now its 'tai'


now just add the 'g' so now its tai-g


Now you have it Tadhg!





It can also be spelled


Tadg or Taidgh





Hope This Helps!!
Reply:Its like tgier with the er.





or tie with a g sound on the end.





Its not like teeg.
