Fòram na Gàidhlig

What are some of the common parts of speech that I'd encounter on an everyday dictionary search? I know the basic ones and the obvious ones from English but the way Gaelic is set up with suffixes and vowel change, genitive case and so on. I see certain part of speech or at least things that look like parts of speech every time I look up a word and it usually leaves me curious.

for example:

boir. iol. -an
gn. ag. -adh
fir. iol. -ean
ainm.
or more completely:

gnàthas /grãː.əs/
fir. gin. -ais, iol. -an
convention

taigh /tɤj/
fir. gin. -e; iol. -ean
house

baile /balə
fir. iol. -tean
1 town 2 township, village


If there is a comprehensive guide for this that someone is aware of then that would be great!!

cheers

These look like 'Am FaclairBeag' abbreviations,

In that case, you will find them all in the Help section, under Abbreviations (see points 5 and 6):

The little bits like -ais, -an are the suffixes linked to the genitive case or the plural.

taigh /tɤj/
fir. gin. -e; iol. -ean
house

> masculine, genitive = taighe, plural = taighean

baile /balə
fir. iol. -tean
1 town 2 township, village

> masculine, no change in genitive form otherwise it would be listed, plural= bailtean

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for, thank you!!
