Publisher's Synopsis
Foclóir Gàidhlig-Gaeilge is a bilingual dictionary aimed at Irish speakers interested in learning Scottish Gaelic. Its 18,000 entries provide broad coverage of the modern Scottish Gaelic language as found in literature, news articles, and online in social media. Although Irish and Scottish Gaelic are closely-related languages, a number of words have diverged in meaning, and these "false friends" are marked prominently in the dictionary as an aid to learners. A selection of the most common words not having a cognate in Irish are marked as well, as these tend to cause particular difficulty for Irish speakers.
