Inhaltsangabe

This book is a deep dive into the Irish language, its history, and its significance to understanding the culture and heritage of Ireland. The author explores the rich literary legacy of the Irish, highlighting the vast storehouse of knowledge contained in ancient manuscripts that detail the history, laws, customs, and even medical practices of the Irish people. The author examines the influence of other languages, such as Phoenician, Welsh, and Hebrew, on the Irish language and its evolution. The book also delves into the political and social forces that shaped the Irish language, including the attempts by English rulers to suppress it. The author argues that the preservation of the Irish language is crucial for understanding the true character of ancient Ireland and for appreciating the cultural richness of the country today. The book offers a window into a vibrant past, and a powerful testament to the enduring legacy of the Irish language.

Excerpt from An Irish-English Dictionary: With Copious Quotations From the Most Esteemed Ancient and Modern Writers, to Elucidate the Meaning of Obscure Words, and Numerous Comparisons of Irish Words With Those of Similar Orthography, Sense, or Sound in the Welsh and Hebrew Languages

Those that are acquainted with the press, will be inclined to excuse a few typographical errors which do not materially affect the sense, and of which description are, I hope, the most of the errors to be found uncorrected in my work. If it shall be found that I have omitted much, let it be remembered that I have added a great deal; and if my work is not so full or perfect as was expected, still it contains upwards of twenty-thousand words more than are contained in former Irish lexicons, and consequently so much the nearer to perfection.
