    An bhfuil aon daoine anso le focal áitiúla mar slang nó curse words?, It'd be great to learn some real Irish as opposed to what the curriculum has.
    go raibh maith agaibh!

    Bhuel :D

    "Chomh fhad an chraic
    tagann an cac!" Trans: "Sh·t happens."

    "Is cuma sa tóin liomsa" Trans: "I couldn't give a #!"

    "Is feisí fealltach é!" Trans: "He's a sly f*er!"

    "Tá sé ina chaca báistí an t-am ar fad:" Trans: "It's always f*in' rainin'!"

    Ní mise féin ach foghlaimeoir, ach fuair mé na rudaí seo ón leabhair Irish Slang Dictionary - tá sé go hiontach mar a bheith ag scríobh pornagrafaíocht agus rudaí salach mar sin. Agus, ar ndóigh, mar a bheith achasán a chaiteamh le daoine fosta.

    B'fhéidir go mbeidís seo úsáideach ...:)


    gamal = eejit, fool

    "Gamal ceart is ea é sin" = "He's a real eejit"

    leathar = sex

    "Bhíodar ag bualadh leathair" = "They were shagging"

    "Fán fada ar do pholl" = "Go to hell"

    "Go maraí an diabhal é!" = "F**k him!"

    go diail = cool, great

    ar meisce = drunk

    bogtha = tipsy

    ar a chaid= pissed OR ar a caid (for a woman)

    "Bhí sé ar a chaid aréir" = "He was pissed last night"

    ag faire ar ... = to fancy...

    "Tá Sinéad ag faire ar Sheán" = "Sinéad fancies Seán"

    "Tá sé lán de bhladhgar" = " He's full of sh*t"

    Wouldn't it be 'gabh suas ort féin'?

    Surely with 'orm' it'd mean 'go f**k myself'...

    Speaking of "self-love", tá drochchainte eile ann:

    Bhí sé ag bualadh feola sa leithreas

    An boidfhidléir

    Fidléir boid

    Bualiteoir feola

    Tá brón orm lads. I couldn't help it. :rolleyes: ;)

    Yeah you're right Bard, my mistake.
    Gabh suas ORT féin - Go **** yourself.

    We in south Derry use the word "broc" meaning badger ...

    it is used to describe a female ...
    i.e.

    "shes a broc" :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,286 ✭✭✭Gael


    That's interesting Johnny. What does it mean though? Is it a compliment or an insult?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,681 ✭✭✭Johnny_the_fox


    it would be an insult.....

    its means the girl isnt that good looking....
