    Ah Hash-keh

    or as they'd say in the north "Ah Hash-Key" (# in text speak!)

    mo chreatuirín/m'aineagailín beag bán - my pure/innocent little creature/angel
    both the diminutive suffix 'ín' and beag are used in the one sentence
    Bán refers to pureness and innocence

    Mo leaidín beag... - my little lad
    Mo chailín beag ... - my (little) girl
    7srl,

    I always use it with the kids :)
