Can somebody please help me with this?
I was using with success Gaelic Dictionaries Online--www.ceantar.org and I found it to be a very useful site.
I would scroll down to 'Gramadach' and then I could select words from A>Z:
Mar shampla-if I selected 'fear' it would come back with all the cases of 'fear,' and if I selected 'imigh' it would come back with all the tenses of 'imigh.'

But it doesn't work that way anymore!! Should I be doing something differently than I was doing previously??


I would greatly appreciate your help!

I don't know, but here are two other very good Gaeilge-Béarla online dictionaries.

Caution:

Focal is the work of the terminology committee - it's excellent, but it does not aim to be a comprehensive dictionary.

It is a dictionary of technical and professional terms.

I had a quick look, and it seems the Gramadach dictionary is broken.

Try getting in touch with the owner

http://www.ceantar.org/jtm/jtm.html

But

quote:

Since ceantar.org is a free-time activity, and there's been precious little of that these days, everything on the site (with the possible exception of the searchable dictionaries should be considered way out of date.

Another good one is An Foclóir Beag:
http://www.csis.ul.ie/focloir/
You can search by entering inflected and/or mutated forms as well: "dán," "dháin" and "ndánta" all direct you to the headword "dán," which displays all inflected forms of the word.

(Note: this is an Irish-Irish dictionary, so it can be a bit intimidating until you learn a few grammatical terms.)

The Collins Irish Dictionary is now on line, and searchable in various interesting ways:

Is maith liom focal a chur... agus ansin léim [gan "mé"] na samplaí.

Déanaim an rud céanna. Ach ní mór dúinn a bheith cúramach: tá cuid mhaith Gaeilge amuigh ansin nach bhfuil 100% iontaofa. Caveat emptor. :-)

Nó Caveat lector?

Níl sarú an fhoclóir bhig le fáil, dar liomsa.
