Monaghan is a county in the north-east of the Republic of Ireland. County here means a large area with its own local government, more like a 縣 than a city. It sits near the border with Northern Ireland, so news about the border often mentions it. In English the name is said roughly like MON-uh-han. You will meet it on maps, in Irish addresses (County Monaghan), and in sports results. The same spelling is also an English surname; that family name is common in Ireland too, but it does not automatically mean the person is from this county.
莫納亨(愛爾蘭共和國東北部的一郡)
組成Borrowed from Irish Muineachán, the Irish name of the county. (The English surname Monaghan comes from a different Irish name, Ó Manacháin, even though the English spelling matches.)
