The Gaelic root "ciar" means "swarthy, dark, dun, dusky" not "black."

"Black" is "dubh" when speaking of the color alone, hair color or eye color. "Black" as a racial description is "gorm" (blue) in Gaelic: "fear gorm" for "Black (African) man" as "fear dubh" was traditionally an oblique reference to the Devil. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.175.220.145 (talk) 00:29, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
