I bought a belt for a kilt and on getting it home I found there was an
inscription on the back of the buckle which read "Air ad Ehanabh an
Alba" could anybody enlighten me as to what it means?

Don't tell me it is gaelic for "Made in South Korea".

Probably "made in Scotland" if it says "Air a dheanamh an Alba"
