    AIR AD ' EHANABH AN ALBA

    I recall deanamh meaning "make" or "do".

    Is AD ' EHANABH a garbled a'dheanamh or something?

    Deafinitely garbled Gaelic. I think it's a poor attempt at Air a' dčanamh ann Alba.

    Dčan means to do or to make. A dhčanamh meaning doing or making.

    As dčan is an irregular verb, the past tense rinn could also be used and in fact would have be simpler rinn ann Alba.
