Alexander Macbain (or Alexander MacBain) (22 July 1855 – 4 April 1907) was a Scottish philologist, best known today for ''An Etymological Dictionary of the Gaelic Language'' (1896). ==Early life and education== Macbain was born 22 July 1855 at Balguish, Glenfeshie (Badenoch, Inverness-shire) and grew up in poverty. His parents, John MacBain and Margaret McIntyre were not recorded as married when his birth was registered 9 August 1855.〔1855 MacBain, Alexander Statutory Births 102/00 0028〕 A native Gaelic speaker, he learned English at the Irish General Assembly school in Badenoch (1863–1870), whose teacher was Alexander Mackenzie.〔Black, "Macbain, Alexander (1855–1907)." ''ODNB''.〕 As a teenager, he taught for half a year at the Dunmullie School in Boat of Garten (1870–71), attended Baldow School in Badenoch, was employed by the Ordnance Survey in Scotland and Wales (1871–74) and returned to Baldow School for another term. Having obtained a bursary, Macbain was accepted at Old Aberdeen Grammar School (1874) and subsequently studied at King's College, Aberdeen (1876), where he graduated with an MA in philosophy.〔
