Carson a bheirinn tabhartas?
(English)
Tha am Faclair Beag gu tur saor an-asgaidh agus mairidh e mar sin. Ge-tà, ’s e obair mhòr a bha ann, digiteachadh faclair Dwelly, a chur air an lìon, dealbhadhna làraich dhan dà fhaclair le gleusan is goireasan ùra, leithid Faclair nan Gnàthasan-cainnte. Agus a bharrachd air sin bidh sinn a’ sìor-obair air susbaint ùr.
Rinn
sinn seo gun sgillinn ruadh bho bhuidheann oifigeach na Gàidhlig
sam bith gu ruige seo. Ma bhios tu a’ cur an
Fhaclair Bhig agus Dwelly-d gu feum gu tric ’s ma
tha thu sa bheachd gur e rud math a tha ann, nach gabh thu
beachd air taic-airigid a thoirt dhuinn? Tha sinn a’ cosg
mu £550 gach bliadhna dìreach air òstaireachd (hosting) agus tha
badan math dheth sin a’ tighinn às ar sporrain fhèin aig
amannan. Gun luaidh air na chosgas sinn air briosgaidean
is cofaidh:
’S e PayPal an dòigh as fhasa airson sin a dhèanamh agus cha leig thu leas ach briogadh air a’ phutan a leanas (bidh e fada gun luchdadh uaireannan ach nì briogadh am broinn na ceàrnaige a’ chùis cuideachd). Innsidh PayPal dhut air an ath-dhuilleag na tha agad ri dhèanamh.
Air neo, mur eil thu cofhurtail leis a-sin, ’s urrainn dhut seic a chur thugainn cuideachd ma tha thu a’ fuireach ann am Breatainn. ’S e “IGAIDHLIG” an t-ainm a dh’fheumadh tu a chur air agus a chur an uairsin gu:

Mòran taing, a charaid!
Am Faclair Beag is totally free and will remain so. Creating it was a lot of work though; putting it onto the web as a searchable dictionary; building the new dictionary framework, with added features and integrating new terminology resources such as Faclair nan Gnàthasan-cainnte. And then there's ongoing work of adding new content for AFB.
Everything
so far is without a penny of funding from any official Gaelic
source. If you use AFB and Dwelly-d a lot and
think it's a good thing, we'd be very happy if you would
consider donating a little something towards it. Just the
hosting costs are about £550 a year and at times, a large chunk
of that is coming out of our own pockets as you can see (Iomlan
is the total of donations; Cosgaisean our
running costs before biscuits and coffee):
We
are much obliged to you all!
If
you’d still like to help keep it a free and growing resource,
you can still help us out.
The easiest way of donating is by PayPal. Just click on the link below (sometimes the button takes a long time to load but anywhere in the box will work). PayPal will then explain to you what you need to do on the next page.
Or, if you're not entirely happy doing that, you can send us a cheque if you live in Britain. Please make it out to "IGAIDHLIG" and send it to the following address:
iGàidhlig

Glaschu G20 6RT
or alternatively you could make a payment directly to the
iGàidhlig (Registered charity (SCIO) SC045374)) bank account
