Ebooks (separate from website content, 8 ebooks plus 4 earlier versions of some of them)
All ebooks published through www.bookofdunbarra.co.uk were published from the UK

In addition to The Book of Dunbarra being a book in itself in a sense, this website is also the publishing platform for most of my other publications. The twelve other ebooks are dowloadable further down this page. Except for the earlier four books at the bottom of this page (which are earlier versions but with better image quality), the other eight, listed first and below, do not repeat content, and have a very large number of individual articles and topics, including Celtic languages, several dialects of Scottish Gaelic as individual topics, information about different Nordic languages and dialects, information about many other languages , examples of other languages including indigenous American languages (Nuxalk, Halkomelem, Quechua, Yucatec Mayan, Navajo (many other indigenous American languages are included but without example sentences)), archaeological information, ancient history, possible links across languages, spirituality, philosophy and much more.

Note that the descriptions of these ebooks do not describe or reference all of the content in the ebooks, I have only mentioned selected bits on this page, as including a more detailed key would be too time-consuming. These books contain a wide array of information and comments pertaining to several aspects of language and mythology, and with exception to the Setantii and Journey of language around the Northern Seas books, the other books downloadable  on this page do not have much of a good description on this page. Even the aforementioned two books have to be opened to really get a full idea of their content. The book, Ancient languages and their connections, second edition, the Land of Pink Sky, for example, contains so much research and information that it would be impossible to try and encompass it even in basic terms in a few paragraphs on this page.

The first eight visible down this page are titled:

.Languages and dialects of Northwestern Europe, and their heritage
.Language and land - minority and indigenous languages and dialects from different parts of the world
.A wee guide to Trøndersk, Faroese, and some other North-Germanic languages

.Northern Dialects of Scottish Gaelic, with sections on other Celtic languages and upon indigenous American languages
.Language and ancient history – with topics on ancient spirituality, sacred language, and linguistic change in Britain, Frisia and Denmark
.Ancient languages and their connections, second edition, the Land of Pink Sky
.In search of the Setantii and the indigenous cultures and languages of West Lancashire and South Cumbria
.A journey of languages around the Northern Seas with discussions on
Germanic Celtic and Salishan languages second edition

 

Note that, previously there were four other books published on this site, which were then removed, because their content was updated and included in later books, they are now re-uploaded however, and are listed below, the books themselves are available at the bottom of this page. These earlier copies have a better photo quality and are available at some libraries. I feel it important to note their publication here, (and to re-upload them, as I have). The first two books were posted on the home page, the latter two books were published on the original name for this page, which was New books (from June 2022) pageThe original content should be visible in archived forms of this site. Their titles are:

 

.An Introduction To Language With Particular Focus On The Celtic Languages And Upon Scottish Gaelic Dialects
.Explorations Of God Language And Spirituality Book One
.The Gaelic language on The Isle of Arran, and topics of other languages

.Explorations of God, language and spirituality, book one – expanded and third edition (second ebook edition).

This book contains 305 pages. This book contains the previous books on this website, combined with new material. It includes a lot of topics, spirituality, language and water, archaeology, languages, Celtic and Nordic, mythology, much about Scottish Gaelic dialects included, including articles on individual dialects which have been spelled in dialect spelling, including two articles written entirely in Scottish Gaelic, one article written in Norwegian, and lots of information about Celtic languages in general, etymology, spirituality, Nordic dialects and languages and others. This book contains various sections on Breton and Breton dialects, but there is only one section about standard Breton as a subject, titled Basic Breton, part one. This is the first part of a longer series of articles about Breton. Although his name is not mentioned in the following publication, Rhisiart Hincks has helped me with my articles about Breton as a whole, and he also helped to checked over the article in this book. This article and most of the others in this book were originally published in An introduction to language - with particular focus on the Celtic languages and upon Scottish Gaelic dialects, although the book below, Languages and dialects of Northwestern Europe, and their heritage contains edits and much more material than the older book at the bottom of this webpage. The second article dedicated to Standard Breton, the Breton language, part two is located on pages 25, 26 and 27 of my ebook Language and land – minority and indigenous languages and dialects from different parts of the world

This book covers research into the Setantii, possible evidence of their language, spiritual beliefs, connecting this to worldwide traditions of a thunderbird deity, in Finnish kokkolintu.

Below is an ebook, titled: A journey of languages around the Northern Seas with discussions on
Germanic Celtic and Salishan languages second edition, published December the 23rd, 2022. This book was originally published on amazon, but never printed. The book includes information and articles on various topics and languages, including Germanic languages around the North-Sea, Anglo-Norse, Old Northumbrian, Shetlandic, ancient Shetlandic words such as yoag, and its connection with 'yoga' and the cosmic egg concept, East Perthshire Gaelic and St Kilda Gaelic articles, a section on Nuxalk (Salishan), (these last three are completely separate from the sections on those languages on the www.bookofdunbarra.co.uk webpage), as well as the Scanian language, Bohuslänska Swedish, Cumbrian dialect, and various other areas of information. This book contains 44 pages.

In my opinion, a very important section in this ebook is with regards to the Finns on Fetlar and the Funzie Girt, where I try to look at archaeological and linguistic evidence to demonstrate that Finns could have been a name given to indigenous peoples in Shetland who may have arrived during the Mesolithic period. This is a short section on page 25. I also discuss some very interesting possible cognates between Scottish Gaelic and Finnish.
Note that some of the topics in this book have been discussed in a different way, with different evidence and information, in other books, thus all of the books are needed in order to completely understand my research.
Note that page 36 was originally the last page of this book, hence why towards the end of page 36 it is written "I hope that this book was enjoyable, and God bless". However I later added the sections on Scanian after this point, making the book 44 pages in length.
