Tá an leabhar sin go hiontach. Bhí an leabhar go léir an an dlúthdhiosca a bhí leis an eagrán sin.
Sílim go bhfuil cóipcheart ag baint leis.

Moltar an leabhar gramadaí seo d'aistritheoirí na Gaeilge. Tá 'Graiméar Gaeilge na mBráithre Críostaí'

thart chomh maith agus glactar leis an gceann sin mar chaighdeán d'aistritheoirí - b'shin an leabhar a dtéann tú ina threo agus deacracht ar bith gramadaí agat. Tuigim do na canúintí agus do rudaí áille dúchasacha nár chualathas ón tús ach i nGaeilge amháin; ach nuair a bhíonn foghlaimeoirí Gaeilge ar an bhfóram ag iarraidh aistriúchán cuí Gaeilge ar rudaí atá i dteangacha eile, creidim gur sa gcaighdeán oifigiúil mar atá sna leabhair thuasluaite is ceart dúinn iad a thabhairt ar dtús agus ansin leagan canúnach dúchasach a thabhairt má bhíonn a leithéid ann.

Thanks for the link, Saoirse. I'd been thinking about buying the book, so it's good to see what I'd be getting for my airgead.

Yer man's explanation of the use of indirect relative clauses struck me as strange. He says they're used in clauses when there's: 1 - "feidhm ghínideach", 2- "feidhm thabharthach" - and here's the strange part - 3- "feidhm chúspóireach". He gives the following examples:

- Tá crann sa pháirc ar bhuail an tintreach é
- Sin páistí a mbuaileann tinneas go minic iad
- Sin an gadaí a bhfaca an garda é

According to this book then, the indirect relative, not the direct relative, is the norm. This contradicts the other grammar books, which use the indirect relative only to avoid the ambiguity of "an gadaí a chonaic an garda" if the direct relative were used in example 3 above. (And in the first two examples there's no real ambiguity, hence no need to use an indirect relative anyway: - Tá crann sa pháirc a bhuail an tintreach; Sin páistí a bhuaileann tinneas go minic )

What dyez think?
