"Eadar Iain agus Màiri."

Translation: Between Iain and Mairi.

[Feech3]

So, if eadar means between, what is the literal translation of eadar-lion?

[Mal_Fox]

Is this only for physical position, ie the box is between iain and màiri, or can it mean a choice, choosing between the two people as well?

[Mirokha]

So, followed by the word with initial 'i', eadar is pronounced as if it were eadair, right?
