The Celticness of briogais
According to this article as of 06/30/08, Celtic would regularly have *b.r.g instead, as in Scottish Gaelic briogais. The word is well-attested in the Germanic languages (see breeches). However, according to Alexander MacBain, the word briogais came to Gaelic from English, from either breeks or breeches.
