Looking for the spelling of two words

[mithridates]

Hi, I just watched the new G.I. Joe movie and there were two Gaelic words there. I've written a post on the words in the movie but have no idea what the proper orthography for the words is.

Here's what they sound like:

shoot/fire - takhin (kh = guttural ch like in loch)
eject - karma or kirma

Recognize those words? I'm not having any luck finding them in any online dictionaries.

Thanks in advance.

the second one is probably cur a-mach, but can you give us an audio clip of them?

[mithridates]

I would love to but there's no audio available yet - I don't even think the movie is out in North America yet (saw it in Korea today). Two people said the first word and both times it sounded like takhin/tachin. I tried looking up the words for fire, shoot, throw, etc. but nothing. Cur a-mach was only said once so I was less sure about that one, but in the meantime I'll assume that to be the spelling.

the front page of the herald has a story about how bad the accents are in the film

[mithridates]

Apparently so - someone just wrote below the post that the first word is Teine, which is pronounced completely differently and sounds like 'chenneh'.

[Quevenois]

Ok.

[neoni]

he meant that it was pronounced completely differently to how it was in the film, not from how it is spelt

True, but Quevenois' point is well taken. I should have said pronounced completely differently from what an English speaker would expect.

I've yet to find a positive review of the movie in a Scottish paper. Still looking..
