Etymology

According to Ó Maolalaigh, from delenition of early modern (originally copular) gidh, giodh before dentals (< e.g. giodh do-bheir ‘though he gives’) or from early modern gé do before compound verbs in do- (gé do-ní ‘though he does’) or in the past tense and conditional mood (e.g. gé do chumadar ‘although they made’, gé do bheannaigh ‘though he blessed’, ge d’fhosgail ‘though he opened’). MacBain explains it as a contraction of ge +‎ ta. Ultimately from Old Irish cía (“though”) or cid (“though … is”).
