What is your county's phrase?

Supermacs are celebrating their birthday with a poll on each county's identifying phrase.

For the purpose of the poll you'd probably have to split Dublin in 2.

And I'd asume that the phrase 'savage' could be claimed by a number of counties.

Any thoughts?

Well ?

That seems to be the greeting that u'll get when u meet anybody in Laois, Carlow, Kilkenny ...... maybe it's the same countrywide.

No 'howya', 'how's it goin', 'hello' . Just .............. Well?

According to chopper, apparently Cork's is "Y'LANGER" which it clearly is not.

We do however like to say "like" and "y'know" and "y'know like" and "dacent" (decent pronounced dae-sint) and "C'mere to me" alot.

Queen-Mise · 23-07-2008 10:23am

I live in Carlow but not from here. Two here:

1 Your quare ......., She is quare mad or some such

2 The other is - you may... you may go and pay that bill

LOL!

Think ".. sowndd loike..." translation - sound like.. has to go down in Galwegian dialectology too.

As do "mouldy" and "corbed".

It wasn't jazz, rather jizz with a bit of tomato sauce.

Or so they tell me, obviously I'd never eat one myself.

Dublin- I went to supermacs last night when I was p*ssed and got food poisoning again! what a kip!

super_furry · 23-07-2008 4:05pm

The Dublin one should be 'Supermacs. You know - for culchies.'

Either that or as some else said 'Ask me bollox'.
