Hello Derek,

Matthew Carver's old site has a condensed Gothic grammar, click
on "wordcraft" here:
http://www.stormloader.com/carver/gutrazda/

I was going to do a more colourful version for ease of remembering,
but it took so long I only got as far as nouns:

Here's a Dutch site with the basics:
http://www.talenwereld.nl/gotgram.html


Nouns and verbs are treated here, with comparative tables of forms
in the various early Germanic languages:

If you read German--or even if not--you might find these useful:

Streitberg, Wilhelm: Gotisches Elementarbuch
http://www.wulfila.be/lib/

This site has Braune's "Gotische Grammatik", but so far only as
scanned pages, which can take a while to sift through.
http://www.ling.upenn.edu/~kurisuto/germanic/aa_texts.html


An useful page on declension of foreign names in Gothic:
http://www.nthuleen.com/papers/755gothpaper.html


And last but not least, if you type "dags dag dagans dagos" or "dags
dag dagis daga" or some such into Google, you'll find a whole lot
more.
