Pronunciation Database

The Pronunciation Database contains sound files which the user can click to listen to words in the three major dialects, namely Connacht, Ulster and Munster. The words are articulated by native speakers from the relevant dialects.

How to use

To listen to the pronunciation of a word, simply type that word into the search box, then click on the required dialect to listen to that dialect’s sound file. In addition to this, on the right of the screen is displayed an index of the neighbouring words for which there is a sound file in the Pronunciation Database, while at the top of the screen an alphabetical index of the material is displayed.
