Title: Kind of glad it's out of print . . .
Product review: Though this review is a bit late, as the book is out of print now, I'll still share my thoughts.This is not a very good dictionary, which disappoints me. I would have thought that the Oxford University would have taken more care in making a dictionary. And I feel sorry for anyone that bought it (including myself).As a beginner in Irish I have a few grievances. First and most important, there are no plural forms. Anyone learning Irish seriously will learn that Irish plural forms are not very predictable, thus they need to be learned with the singular form of nouns. This dictionary only lists the singular form for most nouns!Secondly, and not as serious, it doesn't have any phonetic pronunciation for the individual words. Now the phonetic pronunciation is a mixed blessing anyway, but it does help. I say mixed blessing because the pronunciation represented may not be the pronunciation used it the area. There is no single standard pronunciation for Irish.
