scot gaelic for Lord
Used in the SCA as an acceptable alternative to the title "Lord". It is pronounced "TEE yearn" or "CHEE yearn" (Proper Scot gaelic as a palital soft "t" that sounds simmilar to the Ch sound in cheese.)
The Gaelic also has it spelled at Tigherna, Tigerna, etc. the -a ending is not feminine as in Latin, but proper masculine ending in Old Scot.
