    She said gulp but she's also a muck savage bogger so said it incorrectly.

    Gollop is a large gulp of a drink, Usually drank quickly. old wording and not used to often anymore. And was some times also used for food.

    Ie, Gollop your breakfast down or you will be late for school. But havent heard it been used in years

    A gollop equates to four slugs.Two gollops equates to a savage.In old money.

    Thought gollop was a regular word that everyone would know. I've always used it (50's)

    A guzzle is when a friend says " have a taste this new beer I've found" and you drink the whole pint without stopping


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,418 ✭✭✭✭iamwhoiam


    My gran would always say " Don't gollop down your dinner there are no dinner thieves in my house "

    Had heard of the term, 'Get the Gawks' Cork, circa 80s.

    What context would Goker be used?
