COMPILED GAELIC DICTIONARY

Death of Man Who Taught Himself

Printing

MR EDWARD DWELLY, a genealogist, who

aught himself printing and published works
>n the Gaelic language and on parish
egisters and pedigrees, died on Wednesday
t his home at Fleet, Hampshire, aged 74.

Formerly a bank clerk in London, he com-

aled, printed, and published, single-handed,
Gaelic dictionary of over 1000 pages and
;ith 675 illustrations. For this he was awarded
Civil List pension.
His books were widely read by genealogists
nd excited widespread interest in America.
lr Dwelly, who had an index of about 500,000
lips of references to names for family
istories. was a member of many societies
oth at home and abroad interested in
;enealogy.

parts under the Faclair Gaidhlig
title of

Mac Donald being now out of the
print,
necessity has arisen for a new edition. The one I now
present to the public will, I trust, be found of equal
service both to beginners and advanced students of the
language. The first edition of the work has been care-
fully revised and no expense or labour spared to make
this the most reliable and complete Gaelic Dictionary
obtainable.
The work was originally undertaken solely for my
own private use, but after continual urging by other
Gaelic students who had seen it, and proved its utility
by experience, I at last consented to print it and so
make the result of my labours accessible to all.
The vocabulary is based on that of MacLeod & Dewar,
so much appreciated by Gaelic students, and where the
orthography of that work differs from MacBain's Gaelic
Dictionary that of the latter has been generally adopted
here. All the words not given by MacLeod & Dewar,
but appearing in any of the other Gaelic Dictionaries are
now included besides some thousands of words gathered
from Common Speech and the whole range of Modern
Scottish Gaelic Literature, including the Gaelic names
of Plants, Diseases and Birds, Technical Terms, &c., com-
 u

in pamphlets and periodicals from

piled from lists given
time to time. All the examples of idiomatic phrases
and proverbs given by Mac Alpine have been retained y
as well as Armstrong's, where not practically the same,
and many from Gaelic Proverbs have been
Nicolson's
added, with large numbers from various other sources,
Local words and provincialisms from Common speech,
&c., many never printed before.
My thanks are chiefly due to his Most Gracious
Majesty the late King Edward, for graciously awarding
me a Civil List Pension when only about one half of
the Dictionary had been issued to the public, and his
Majesty's lamentable death is one of the dark shadows
that mars my pleasure at the completion of my life-work,
by preventing the possibility of my offering a copy for
his acceptance. The great expense entailed by the
publication of a book of this magnitude singlehanded, i&
a constant and heavy drain on the income of anyone of
small means, and were it not for the receipt of this-
pension when it was awarded,, the continuation of the
publication beyond page 600 would have been, at least
for many years, an absolute impossibility. Before
proceeding any farther, I should have had to execute
enough remunerative work to enable me to purchase the
necessary materials to continue the Dictionary as well as
to live upon, an exceedingly hard task after the struggles
1 had already gone through, and one which would have
no doubt eventually ended in the abandonment of the
publication in an unfinished state. Owing to unfor-
tunate investments I had already had to earn all the
money to purchase the necessary materials to produce this
book as well as much of my living for some years by
doing any printing I could get ; but the strain on brain
and eyesight entailed by thus always working at the high-
est pressure and for exceptionally long hours, so that
the Dictionary might be completed as quickly as possible,
could not have been continued much longer.

I have
help given by my correspondents in all parts of the
world, both by sending numbers of words that were new
to me and by obtaining many subscribers to the work.
I am also indebted to my wife for revising proofs, as-
sisting in folding sheets, and preparing parts for post,
as well as for advising many translations. The suc-
cess of the work isno small measure due to her
in
assistance in household matters, and by keeping down
domestic expenses making money available for its pro-
duction that would have otherwise been spent in an un-
productive way. The following gentlemen have kindly
assisted by following the work during its progress through
the press, and it is largely due to their suggestions and
additions that the compilation of such a full and accurate
vocabulary of Scottish Gaelic has been possible.

The Highland Society of London kindly contributed

No one who has always spoken a language like
Gaelic from the cradle can ever realize the extraordinary
difficulties presented to a stranger who wishes to acquire
it. First, the majority of Gaelic speakers only a very
few years ago could neither read nor write it, so when
one heard an unfamiliar word or phrase and the first
instinct was of course to write it down lest it should be
forgotten, the question was how to spell it of course
the speaker could not tell I was baulked in this way
!

times without number, and my progress with the language

immensely retarded in consequence. Next, the great
difficulty of inducing a Gael to engage in a Gaelic con-
versation if he thinks he can make himself understood at
all by means of indifferent English, or even if there is

anyone present who cannot understand Gaelic, makes the

acquisition of a of colloquial Gaelic much more
knowledge
difficult than the case with other modern tongues, for
is
it is only by posing as a Highlander and one who knows

Gaelic that one can ever hope to hear it spoken habitually

and without restraint. These are real difficulties, but
they may be overcome by scheming and perseverance as
I have proved.
This Dictionary is of especial value to the
beginner.
Many who did not learn the language in
infancy, but ac-
quired it in later life through the medium of books, have
notified me of the difficulties of grammar and idiom
they
.met with. Such difficulties are likely to puzzle other
novices, and have therefore been explained under their
appropriate headings. Grammatical difficulties have been
elucidated by good Gaelic scholars, and no labour lias
been spared to make the work as complete and reliable
as possible. Some have found fault with my explan-
ations here and there as being too full but I have always
purposely inclined to being too explicit rather than too
vague, because while one reader may be far beyond any
assistance a certain explanation gives, the next may find
in it an elucidation of a difficulty that he has been try-
ing to get explained for months. This has been
brought home vividly to me by some of my proof-readers
u
making such remarks as, "unnecessary," self-evident,"
&c. beside explanations I have given of difficulties that
had puzzled me considerably when a beginner, and the
full understanding of which I had imperceptibly acquired
as I attained increased fluency in speaking the language.
Some scholars object to some of the words given in
other Dictionaries as being Irish and not Scottish Gaelic,
but many of these so-called Irish words are in daily use
in Cantyre and appear in the Scottish Gaelic Bible, and
the close similarity the Gaelic speech of the West of
Scotland has to that of the North of Ireland (much closer
than the native English of places not farther removed from
one another and with no sea between them) makes the
interchange of words easy and often convenient. Many"
of those who condemn the use of what they call " Irish
words, have no scruple in introducing English and Doric
words, which they try to pronounce and write according
to Gaelic rules, apparently to make their identity some-
what obscure, when there are already two or three native
Gaelic words much more to the point.
A few correspondents have complained that the work
is toocrowded, in places, with obsolete or English words,
but only those given in other Gaelic Dictionaries figure
here, although more prominence has been given to the
character of Anglicisms. Words marked obsolete in.
some Dictionaries, may often have been obsolete for a long
period in the districts in which the compilers of those
 VI

particular works lived, while still used in other places.

The usual rule hitherto adopted in Gaelic Dictionaries
with regard to English words in Gaelic dress has been
clarc, s.m. A clerk.
Sometimes Eng. or Eng. word is added, but not often.
A new system has been adopted here, and all such words
have been inserted thus
Gaelic spelling of clerk.
clarc, s.m.
This is theDictionary of the Gaelic language
first
in which an attempt has been made to explain words by
means of diagrams, and the first in which especial care
has been taken in collecting localisms, the names of old
Highland implements, &c., and their parts, many of which
are now only to be found in one or two remote parishes
of the Western Isles, from which they are fast disappear-

ing. The lists of technical terms here given have never

been published before, and the whole of the illustrations,
with one or two exceptions, have been specially drawn
for the work.
It is a cause of regret that type of a larger size
could not have been used, but, owing to the great increase
that would have caused in the bulk of the book, it was
found to be impossible.
No attempt has been made to give a so-called phone-
tic spelling of each word as MacAlpine does. The
orthodox spelling of the Gaelic language being practically
phonetic on its own lines, by far the simplest way is to
learn the correct sounds of the various Gaelic combin-
ations of letters from some good text-book, of which there
are many, and if possible, with the aid of a native Gaelic
speaker.
Eeaders must use their own discretion in practising
some of the forms given when translating from English
into Gaelic. Many of the words which have here been
added to MacLeod & Dewar's vocabulary are localisms
and the persons or books from whom they were obtained
being nearly always indicated by signs or initials, the
 vu

<,-,.-, ..

which they may be met with are

districts in
easily found.
Some such meanings while easily understood in one place,
might be quite unintelligible even in another part of the
same county. The name of a place given after any
word or sentence signifies that it has been heard there,
but itsuse may not be confined to that particular locality.
Where dialectic quotations from common speech or books
are given the dialectic form of spelling is usually retained.
The
past participles of verbs are spelt in the Dictionaries
" leathann ri
according to the old Gaelic rule, leathann,"
but there is a tendency among Gaelic writers at present
to violate that rule and spell phonetically, as spadte for
spadta, &c. Irregular forms of infinitives or present
participles are not generally given by other Dictionaries
under their roots, so they cannot be found unless you
already know them. They are given here both under
the roots and in their own places.
Every effort has been made to get the work finished
as quickly as possible compatible with correct work and
in consequence I worked long hours on many days when
really too ill to do any work at all. The unique obstacles
encountered in acquiring a fluent knowledge of Gaelic
and compiling this Dictionary, as well as the
difficulty
in not being able to pay the heavy expense of having it
printed and published in the ordinary way and so being
finally compelled to learn how to print and publish it
myself, have been fully described by the Press from time
to time and an epitome of these accounts will be found in

my History of the Dwelly family. I have set up every

letter of thetype myself from beginning to end, and the
only assistance I have had in connection with the printing
of this book has been the occasional distribution of type

by members of my family amounting to nearly 40 pages

and by others 10 pages in all under 50 pages.

It consisted of a plain piece of tartan, two
yards in width, and four or six in length. In

and barrows are very numerous in the High-
lands, Ireland and Wales, as well s parts
of Norway, Sweden, and other Continental
countries," and there are a few in America.
Some of them measure 300 ft. in cir umfer-
ence at the base and 20 ft. in height. They
consist of loose stones, and the whole is in
the shape of a cone. In many instances
waere they have been opened, they contain-
ed epulchral urn^, which show that they
were memorials of the dead. Many of these
piles consist entirely of earth, and this gave
Tise to the opinion that ston cairns were in
tended ior malefactors, while those of earth
were for the victorious and brave. We learn
from ancient authors that malefactor were s
vburied under heaps of stone, anil it was a com-
mon practice among the Druids to erect
cairns on spots where criminals had been
dmrnt. Hence "fear air chirn" means an
outlaw, "tha e air a' cliarn," ht it an outlaw.

all its disadvantages, the cas-chrom is, of all
instruments, the fittest for turning up the
ground in the eouutry, for among so many
rocks a plough can do little or nothing, and
where there are no rocks, the earth is gener-

pass over it without sinking in deeply." It is
of pretty general use in the Western Isles,

with it in a day than four are able to do with

stealer cuts off a cas-chaibe mark, the
ear will then be like one marked bdrr.
When lower marks than cas-ckaibe have
to be removed, a larger part of the ear
is cut off, leaving only a stump.
In Lewis, the marks 1 to & are the old ear-
marks, known as "na naoidh deargadh."
Nos. 10 & 11 are of modern origin (MMD)
The "near" ear, is "cluas ehli," or "cluas a*
ghlacaidh;" the "far" ear, "cluas dheas."
By combinations of these marks, and the use
of either or both ears, a practically endless
variety may be obtained.
There are some who put age-marks on their
sheeps' ears, one nip for one-year-old, two
nips for two-year-old, and so on up to five-

-of the yellow stick. A Coll priest of former
times was accustomed to drive recalcitrant
natives to church by a smart application of
his walking stick, those who yielded were
thus said to coma under " creideamh-a'-bhata-
blmidhe." Another version says Hector, son
of Donald Maclean of Coll, was the one who
applied the yellow stick. Hector was laird in
1715, and as the religion of the yellow stick

ance and stern in manners, and could no doubt
wield the yellow stick gracefully and with
efficiency.
