Do you know that Historic Scotland has a [http://www.historic-scotland.gov.uk/gaelic-thesaurus Gaelic Thesaurus] for those special words? Maybe this page would be helpful for you, for example: chìp ->keep? -> [http://www.historic-scotland.gov.uk/search.htm?Language=english&SearchTerm=keep&SearchMode= daingneach?] Le deagh dhùrachdan --[[Cleachdaiche:Sionnach|Sionnach]] ([[Deasbaireachd a' chleachdaiche:Sionnach|an deasbaireachd]]) 05:15, 28 dhen Lùnastal 2015 (UTC)
:I didn't know, no. Thanks! ''Cìp'' is indeed supposed to mean keep while ''an t-aghaidh-thogalaich chùirtearach'' is supposed to be "[[:en:curtain wall (fortification)|curtain wall]]", which the Historic Scotland thesaurus suggests should be ''balla-cùirteir''. Both of the terms I used came from http://www.learngaelic.net/dictionary/ by the way ([http://www.learngaelic.net/dictionary/index.jsp?abairt=c%C3%ACp&slang=both&wholeword=false cìp], [http://www.learngaelic.net/dictionary/index.jsp?abairt=aghaidh-thogalaich%2Bch%C3%B9irtearach&slang=both&wholeword=false aghaidh-thogalaich chùirtearach]). Still, I think I'd trust Historic Scotland over a generalised dictionary any day (for this kind of vocab.). <font face="sans-serif">'''[[Cleachdaiche:Alphathon|<font color="#900">Alphathon</font>]]'''&nbsp;<small>/'æɫ.fə.θɒn/&nbsp;<sup>([[Deasbaireachd a' chleachdaiche:Alphathon|<font color="#900">an deasbaireachd</font>]])</sup></small></font> 12:36, 28 dhen Lùnastal 2015 (UTC)
:: Tha mi a' dol leat./ I agree with you. But in general the learngaelic dictionary looks fine to me as well. By the way, do you know that there is a [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/scottish-gaelic-spell-checker/ Gaelic spellchecker] which is working quite well here in Uicipeid? --[[Cleachdaiche:Sionnach|Sionnach]] ([[Deasbaireachd a' chleachdaiche:Sionnach|an deasbaireachd]]) 19:41, 28 dhen Lùnastal 2015 (UTC)
