Dia daoibh, a chairde!

"Sasanach"... Cad é atá an iolra fhocal seo?

(And in case I totally mutilated that Irish... "what's the plural of Sasanach" is what I'm trying to find out. GRMH!)

I need to invest in a better dictionary because this little Collins Irish "Express Edition" just ain't cuttin'it. No plurals!

Dia 's Muire duit, a Dhomhnaill!

Sasanach, na Sasanaigh
Éireannach, na hÉireannaigh
Francach, na Francaigh
... agus mar sin de

Is it too late to ask Santa? If not, send him to Galway Traders!

Donmhnall,
I would suggest getting at least 4 -the two Ó Dónáill ones (English first and Irish first for idiom), foclóir póca for sounds, and an electronic one like WinGléacht or Easy reader. Using Firefox as a browser allows one to have spell checking too
