‘For learners, speakers and teachers of Scottish Gaelic this is without a doubt the most useful of existing gaelic
dictionaries.’--William Gillies, Professor of Celtic, University of Edinburgh.
A reissue in an attractive new cover of this essential reference work which is described as a ‘Pronouncing and
Etymological Dictionary of the Gaelic language.’ While it is widely regarded as the standard dictionary for both
native speakers and learners at all levels, it is a particularly good choice for those who want Gaelic to English
and English to Gaelic in a single volume.
With its detailed coverage of etymology and pronunciation, the dictionary is more than just a practical tool for the everyday user. It also makes a unique contribution to Gaelic culture and provides a comprehensive vocabulary aid for the present and future reader, writer and speaker of the language.
