Allt na Cloiche-muilinn [Circled Note]
Rule - When two nouns are joined together
with a hyphen, the antecedent noun generally
governs the other in the genitive.
The antecedent noun is declined in both numbers
according to its own declension with the subjunctive noun
agreeing with it in every case like an adjective but always retaining the termination
of its genitive in both numbers-
