"feadhán" meaning in Irish

See feadhán in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈfʲɨ̞ɡanˠ/ [Ulster]
Etymology: Uncertain. Dinneen lists it as a specialized sense of feadhain (“band, troop, company of men”), which comes from Old Irish fedan (“act of carrying”). But it could also be from feadh (“length, extent”) + -án or fiodh (“wood”) + -án since wheel rims were originally made of wood.
