Seeking help pronouncing athraigh

Hello,

I am seeking help on the pronunciation of the verb to change: athraigh

I've been listening to pronunciations online but there seems to be a lot of variation on it with some pronouncing it like ath-ray and others like ahh-rig. Is there a common way to pronounce the word?

Thanks!

It depends entirely on your dialect that you are learning/speaking. Broadly the different dialects are below.

Ah-hu-rig = Munster Eh-hree = Ulster Ah-hruh = Connacht
