scenáórí

Scenáórí is an Irish-language noun used to refer to imagined sequences of events or hypothetical situations. In English, the term is typically rendered as “scenarios,” and scenáórí serves the same function in Irish texts. It is commonly employed to discuss multiple possible developments, outcomes, or narratives that could unfold under different conditions.

In Irish, the singular form is scenár, and scenáórí is the standard plural. The word reflects the way Irish often adopts or adapts terms for planning, storytelling, and analysis, with the plural marking indicating more than one potential sequence. It appears across formal and informal registers, including education, media, theatre, and policy discussions.

Usage and applications vary by field. In education and training, scenáórí help illustrate consequences of decisions or actions. In business and risk management, they are used to model different futures to support planning and contingency measures. In creative contexts, scenáórí outline possible plot progressions or scenes as part of script development or narrative design. Because scenáórí convey multiple possible futures, they play a central role in planning, communication, and storytelling in Irish-language contexts.
