Bidh Liam Crouse, oileanach PhD aig Tobar an Dualchais agus Sabhal Mòr Ostaig, a’ toirt sùil air seanchas nan ainmean-àite ann an Èirisgeigh agus a’ dèanamh comas eadar na tùsan airson cuid de dh’ainmean agus na h-atharrachaidhean a thachair leotha thairis air nam bliadhnaichean. Bidh e a’ bruidhinn air mar a thug an t-atharrachadh seo buaidh air na h-ainmean-àite  san eilean. Cluichidh Liam taghadh de clàraidhean bho làrach-lìn Tobar an Dualchais a tha ceangailte ri ainmean-àite Èirisgeigh mar phàirt den tachartas. Thèid an tachartas a chumail ann an co-bhonn le Comunn Eachdraidh Èirigeidh agus bidh e anns a’ Ghàidhlig. Bidh tì, cofaidh is bèicearachd ri fhaotainn. Tha an tachartas seo saor an asgaidh agus tha e air a mhaoineachadh le Seachdain na Gàidhlig tro Mhaoin nan Tabhartas Beag, le taic bho Bhòrd na Gàidhlig.
