Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, a meticulous English-Irish dictionary, stands as a testament to the author's dedication to preserving and promoting the Irish language. Dating back to 1855, it reflects a period when Irish was undergoing a revival, with scholars striving to standardise its spelling and grammar. The author's primary aim was to equip non-native speakers with the tools to communicate effectively with the Irish-speaking populace. The dictionary encompasses a wide range of vocabulary, omitting only obscure English terms deemed irrelevant for daily interactions. It also incorporates Irish words of English origin commonly used by the people, reflecting the dynamic exchange between languages. The author's efforts to establish consistent spelling amidst the prevailing inconsistencies of the time underscore the challenges faced during this linguistic renaissance. Beyond its practical function, this dictionary offers a glimpse into the social and cultural landscape of 19th-century Ireland, where language served as both a barrier and a bridge between communities. The author's hope that this work would contribute to the cause of Ireland speaks to the profound connection between language and national identity. Ultimately, this dictionary's enduring value lies in its contribution to the preservation and revitalisation of the Irish language, ensuring its continued use and understanding for generations to come.
