MEDIA REVIEWS
Níl amhras ar bith nach bhfuil toirt agus téagar sa Teasáras Gaeilge-Béarla a thiomsaigh Garry Bannister. Is breá go deo an leabhar í.
If a thesaurus is typically a book or electronic resource that lists words in groups of synonyms and related concepts,the Teasáras does this and more. In fact,if anything,it is more like a one-stop-shop for the Irish language or Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Irish But Were Afraid to Ask ...Part of the pleasure of the Teasáras is losing oneself in the endless possibilities of the language,as the headword kickstarts a stream of associations.... A crucial contribution of the Teasáras is showing how a fuller knowledge of Irish offers opportunities for seeing in a deeper,more context-sensitive way.
