### 5/5 — Excellent free accessible dictionary for a beginner

*2021-04-12, version 1.9*

I’m learning Irish on duolingo , and for my purposes this dictionary serves me very well! Thank you!

### 5/5 — Best Irish Dictionary

*2019-02-27, version 1.9*

Excellent coverage with attention to idioms. Usually two spellings found, one with h and one without. Pronunciation also.

### 1/5 — Italian?

*2019-01-24, version 1.9*

Sounds like a heavy Italian accent 
The idea is brilliant though

### 4/5 — Pronunciation

*2018-10-27, version 1.9*

I downloaded this app because of the added feature of word pronunciation. The Irish is awful. The voice sounds like a drunken Italian just guessing at Irish. As a dictionary, however, it’s very good.

### 1/5 — Awful pronounciation

*2016-12-17, version 1.9*

The Irish words are read out by a non-Irish voice and are pronounced completely wrong. Even the English words sound a bit dodgy. Also the app tries to directly translate phrases which don't mean the same in both languages

### 2/5 — Not very good

*2016-09-01, version 1.9*

The translator is European not Irish and pronounces a lot of the words wrong.

A lot of words in this aren't gaeilge, the grammar can be terrible.  There is no k,y,q,w,y in the gaeilge alphabet yet there are a lot of words that have them letters here.

Not everything about the app is completely terrible but that translator definitely is. She takes no notice of the fádas whatsoever. And that is just the tip of the iceberg. I would not listen to or use a single translation that woman says, it is not gaeilge she is speaking, it sounds French or Spanish or something similar I am not sure?

Great to see an Irish translator in the App Store and hope it improves in the future!

### 5/5 — Phrases

*2016-02-04, version 1.6*

Phrases and idioms are the tough parts of this language. This ap seems to have them.

### 5/5 — Best irish dictionary so far.

*2016-02-03, version 1.6*

This irish dictionary really stand out among the 5 or 6 I have tried.

Especially for the simple look up of am Irish  word to English and visa versa.

Toy do have to know a few spelling rules.  But for the most part, I find Irish words without having to search all over the Internet.

I use this app exclusively die Irish dictionary when I am studying during lessons.

### 2/5 — NOT Irish at all

*2015-09-28, version 1.4*

You need to get a native speaker from A Ghaeltacht to pronounce all the words in this dictionary; otherwise, don't bother to have them pronounced at all. It's as if someone were trying to pronounce Vietnamese with a thick Russian accent and the person doing so claims to speak said Vietnamese.

### 1/5 — Very strange Irish

*2015-09-07, version 1.4*

Irish as spoken by a Vietnamese maybe?
