lenarbh

lenarbh (form used before a consonant lenar) (used before a vowel sound)

with which/whom was/would be
an fear lenarbh fhéidir labhairt le hainmhithe ― the man who could talk to animals

páiste lenarbh eagal go dtiocfadh robálaí sa teach ― a child who was afraid that a robber would come into the house

Especially in the spoken language, it is more common to use the indirect relative particle ar with a resumptive prepositional pronoun:

páiste arbh eagal leis go dtiocfadh robálaí sa teach ― a child who was afraid that a robber would come into the house
