Publication of the first Irish (Gaelic) - Spanish dictionary

Friday, May 22, 2009


See, here it is. I had assumed that a language like Spanish would have already had a dictionary to and from Irish, but it seems not.

The image is a bit small but it says Diccionario irlandés-español / Foclóir Gaeilge-Spáinnise.

And the dictionary can be purchased...hmm, not exactly sure where. The price is 15 euros though, and it has a total of 19,000 entries so it's more of a pocket or student dictionary.

Yep, it also stroke me as odd ... there might be, however some Galician-Irish studies, however, as there are some Irish poems translated into Galician language.

I think you're wrong.
I would think that 19.000 entries makes it a lot more more than just a pocket dictionary. According to the web site it has over 300 pages.

I have a pocket Turkish-English-Turkish dictionary of 767 pages, and a Norwegian-English-Norwegian one of almost 600. 300 pages is quite small for a dictionary.
