Focail na mBan is a gathering of Irish words for vaginas, vulvas, clitorises and periods with
illustrations from 29 artists.
It is meant as a catalyst for those willing to seek out further terms and insights from older lore-
keepers in the Gaeltacht. In no way is it a comprehensive collection of such words, but rather a
humble first step; a gesture of encouragement for others who may wish to dive deeper into this
rich realm of linguistic insight.
It is illustrated with the works of 29 artists who responded to the words.
