Is there etymological cognate between English "screech" and Irish Gaelic "scréach"? Two words are same meaning and similar spelling. Is this loanword from another?--Propatriamori (talk) 00:40, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

I'm not sure. Given the meaning, they could both be onomatopoeias and the similarity just coincidental. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 13:06, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. And please add the pronunciation if you could. --Propatriamori (talk) 10:16, 2 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
