Welcome to my Gaelic-English/English-Gaelic Dictionary Site

For those who have noticed download problems on this site thanks for the update. Everything should be working fine now! A new version is coming in the next month or so. Some new functions, words and support for Windows 2000 ;)

Gaelic/English Dictionary for Windows 95/NT v0.9.4 (4.2MB)

Here's a screenshot of what it looks like

I've recently gotten some complaints about downloads taking a long time or frequently timing-out on the full install version. So here's the dictionary in floppy disk sized chunks. To install make sure that all the extracted folders are in the same directory (default is C:\Temp), and run Setup.exe from the Disk1 directory.

Disk 2 (1.37MB)
Disk 3 (1.36MB)
