Ros na Rún
Categories: Irish culture | Irish language
Ros na Rún is an Irish language soap opera produced for Irish language TV channel TG4 (previously Teilifís na Gaeilge) which will begin its ninth season in September 2004. The title plays on the double meaning of the word rún, which has a basic meaning of 'secret' but also has a long history as a word to call your sweetheart/honey/darling etc. Ros can mean either 'a wood or wooded headland' or 'a headland or promontory', so the title can mean either 'Wood/Headland of the Secrets' or 'Wood/Headland of the Sweethearts'.
