What does brogue mean in Gaelic?

There isn't a single direct translation of "brogue" in Gaelic that captures its full meaning. "Brogue" in English refers to both a type of shoe and a regional accent. Gaelic would need different words for each:

* For the shoe: The Gaelic word would depend on the specific type of brogue. There isn't one single equivalent. You'd need a more descriptive term, perhaps relating to a specific style of shoe.

* For the accent: There's no direct translation for "brogue" as a regional accent. You'd have to describe it, perhaps by specifying the region ("cainnt *[place name]*" - the speech of [place name]) or mentioning the characteristics of the accent.

Therefore, there's no single Gaelic word for "brogue." You need to be specific about which meaning you intend.
