conas tá' Just a quick question concerning the usage of "ansiúd" if anyone can help. I was always wondering when to use it, i was reading an article in Gaelscéal the other day and it used it in the context of "....corrfhocal anseo is ansiúd". So I was wondering, would it be wrong to use "ansin" in place of ansiúd here? any help appreciated

'maith agaibh

bainrear úsáid as ansiúd sa chás nach bhfuil áit dearfach sainiúil i gceist i.e anseo is ansiúd.
Nuair atá duine ag caint faoi dhream nach bhfuil eolas/aithne aige/aici orthu tugtar "An Dream Siúd" orthu
" the other " de réir an Bhéarla.
An comhthéacs Iad seo, iad sin, iad siúd. These, That , the others

As with úd by itself, it can convey the idea of "over yonder", in the sense of "a good ways away".
