reflects on the history of the Irish language and its dialects. This paper also visits the Latin language’s impact on Western languages.

friction loss along a smooth pipe shows that there are existence of laminar and transitional flows as stated in Graph 2.0 and Graph 2.1. It is proven that the higher velocity along the smooth bore pipe‚ the higher is the head loss of water. As shown in Table 3.0‚ when the Reynolds’ number increases‚ the value of pipe coefficient friction‚ f decreases along the decreasing stead laminar line. On top of that‚ there are energy loss from the water to the surface of the pipe and therefore‚ the temperature
