Fuair mé an suíomh seo agus mé ag cuardach tomhais:
http://www.akerbeltz.org/beagangaidhlig/toimhseachain/toimh_b.htm Mar a tharlaíonn go minic, tá mé ag fáil an t-eolas atá ag teastáil uaim i nGaidhlig in áit i nGaeilge. B’fhéidir nach bhfuil mé sách cleachtaithe le Google go fóill. B’fhuil aon áit ar an Internet le tomhais i nGaeilge? Ar fhaitíos nach bhfuil, tá mé ag dul ag tosnú le liosta anois agus iarraidh oraibh aon tomhais atá ar eolas agaibh a sheoladh isteach le bhúr dtoil.
