A stone or rock, particularly in Scottish or Irish usage, sometimes used to describe standing stones or cairns.
From Scottish Gaelic 'clach,' meaning stone. This word preserves ancient Celtic vocabulary in English, particularly in Scottish place names and dialects.
If you've ever wondered why so many Scottish places have 'clach' in the name, now you know—Clachaig, Clach Leathann. Gaelic place names are like geological maps written in an ancient language!
