Skin and hair flying. (an almighty row)

And my personal favourite, (to be said in a tone of great disdain) -
"I wouldn't stoop so low to pick up so little!"

Those are just phrases, albeit in a Dublin accent, that you'd hear all over Ireland and the UK. And in the case of 'know what I mean' literally everywhere in the English speaking world. GOD OP.

I like the way Dublin say "an' anyways" though, that's cool

Ol' Donie

Stephens's Day.

Whatever the f*ck that's about.

Best delivered in a disdainful female voice with a fag in one hand, held between the nails as opposed to the fingers.

I love the random and needless 'but' which some Dubliners throw into the ends of their sentences, to the point where I adopted it for a few months.

I'm a middle-class fella from a nice part of South Dublin. I've got no right to say it, but I did because I'm a rebel but.

The examples show what a poor language it is. Born of poverty and low levels of education I suppose, but dying out. Fortunately, nothing worth preserving.

Yes, the Gaiety-Panto-accent wears a bit thin, eventually. Especially when it is a mixture of accents - north city, south city, Liberties, north county or south county - being quoted self-consciously in the manner of Ould Misther Brennan (shudder)

There is certainly a number of sayings that are particular to Ringsend, and there's even a distinctive Dun Laoghaire style!

Anyone from Raytown willing to share a few?

Mint Aero

They refer to bookmakers as bewkies.

Ol' Donie

Inanyway.

Do people still say that?

As in "Na der's no neyid fer you to go to Xtra Fision to bring de fideo back, oi'm goin da way later inanyway."

That's more or less my accent.

Mint Aero

And what's it? They call the dole, the labour?

Ol' Donie

Stall it.

DEFTLEFTHAND

I like them though, the real Dubliners. I love sitting in a pub listening to them converse with each other. It's almost poetic at times.

Wife/husband/ should never be referred to by their actual name's, it's always "he" or "she".

If only there was a Dublin forum where the Dubs could have a boards.ie version of Joe Duffy's 'Funny Friday'... as funny as a fire in a children's home.

Diddies.

I'm not sure if it's strictly just a Dublin word that has sadly fallen out of common use but I still love it and am actively using it whenever the opportunity arises.
