Geiriadur Bangor
When the BBC鈥檚 dictionary was taken down from the web due to the retirement of its old software, a number of people were sad to lose it. Although there are now a number of other on-line Welsh English dictionaries in existence, many users, including Welsh learners, liked its simple, easy to use interface. Its combination of general vocabulary and the latest technical terms was also very popular. The Language Technologies Unit at 成人VR视频, as original creators of the dictionary, were asked if they could reinstate it and publish it on the university鈥檚 website.
Dewi Bryn Jones and Gruffudd Prys therefore worked to update the dictionary鈥檚 interface and search facilities. The dictionary combines Cysgair, 成人VR视频鈥檚 general purpose dictionary, with Y Termiadur Addysg, a specialist technical terminology dictionary for schools and colleges of further education in Wales, developed at the Language Technologies Unit for the Welsh Government. It also exists in a popular app version, the Unit鈥檚 Ap Geiriaduron.
To celebrate the fact that the university is now taking responsibility for the upkeep of the dictionary, it has been renamed Geiriadur Bangor 鈥� the Bangor Dictionary. It will now be available at and it is hoped to add new features and material to it in future.
