    A friend who is learning Irish is looking for a word for weathervane. Can anyone help please?

    Hi, I think you could use 'gaothaire' which is the traditional windvane that shows wind direction or 'ainéimiméadar' (anemometer), the device that measures both speed and direction.

    Eite Ghaoithe is what Focal.ie gives for 'weather vane'.

    I like what Fascination just suggested too.
