Reviews

This deck is strange, seems like so much effort has been put into it but it's unusable.

If you use it in Anki, none of the audio works. If you use it in AnkiWeb, you can't see any of the definitions.

It could be a fantastic resource but it's broken.

This is a great resource, but it only includes one definition for each word.

There are actually only around 1,000 words translated, which is a great start:

The inline audio from teanglann.ie is super and, you can hit a link to the teanglann dictionary also; I find the act of filling out the definitions actually helps with learning the words; but I've had to manually copy and paste for most words to get the full meanings in.

I haven't had any trouble with the audio. This deck is honestly amazing. None of the other Irish decks can hold a candle to it.

I also had a problem accessing the audio at first - but if you review the cards on AnkiWeb rather than on the desktop app, then all the audio works great! It's a really good deck, however there are a few things which aren't quite correct (eg. ár being put as 'slaughter' when it also means 'our' which is far more common). I'm a Scottish Gaelic speaker so it was pretty easy for me to see when things were were not quite right, but if you have no Irish you might end up learning a few wrong words. Despite this I think it's the best Irish flashcards around.

Brilliant work, thank you!

Sound works fine for me on Version 2.0.50 of Anki for Linux (running on Linux Mint 18.03). I did, however, install Anki by using a complete .deb, rather than the tar file download on the Anki site.

Very helpful, and has become the basis for several of my own decks.

Go raibh maith agat! Tá sé go hiontach!

Audio didn't work, so as much as I loved that there was pronunciation for all three dialects, I couldn't use them.

Potential



Could be a great list, but many words don't have the English in the deck, just the link to the dictionary website. Also the audio didn't seem to work on my computer.
