The Caighdeán Oifigiúil/Official Standard Irish was not available in time to be implemented throughout the English-Irish Dictionary at the time of its publication in 1959 and, accordingly, the spelling and grammar of the Irish versions in English-Irish Dictionary are not wholly compliant with the later Caighdeán Oifigiúil.
