{{Use dmy dates|date=February 2018}}{{Use British English|date=February 2018}}Colin BD Mark is a British teacher, lexicographer and writer on the linguistics of Scottish Gaelic. He is the author of three books, a number of articles as well as short stories published in the Gaelic language quarterly Gairm.[1]

He holds an undergraduate degree in Classics from the University of Aberdeen. He taught for nearly 40 years in a number of schools in the South-East and North-East of Scotland.

His Gaelic verbs systemised and simplified (2006) received widespread praise including from Ruairidh MacIlleathain, BBC Alba journalist and writer, who praised the book's attention to idiom.[2]

His Gaelic to English Dictionary (2002) is one of a small number of Scottish Gaelic dictionaries in the modern era and has received praise for its practical and user friendly nature. David Stifter, who reviewed the dictionary in Language (journal) the journal of the Linguistic Society of America praised the dictionary's comprehensiveness, including over 90,000 entries gathered from twenty years of study, in his opinion unparalleled except by older dictionaries by Edward Dwelly and Malcolm MacLennan.[3][4] The dictionary was also recommended by Victor Price.[5]

Mark resides in the Scottish seaside town of Buckie with his wife Jean [6]
