A 'surfer' Tramore thing maybe! Chances are tho he's just a gowler!

"Lack" is the philosophically correct term for ones partner.

The ancient Greeks believed that the precursors to mankind were 2 beings that were fused together. They annoyed Zeus and he cut them in half, dooming them to search for their 'other half' for eternity.


I doubt that is the reason for people in Tramore to call their partners 'Lacks' though..

Would take an age to type out all the Cork slang since it is quite rich with colloquial terms.

My favourite phrase would have to be "my ol' doll's ol' lade"
I am also quite fond of the word "brasser" for a prossie.

Maybe in Tramore people call there mother ma,but they dont in the city.

Also feek is a term used in the travellers own lanuague,so i think you friends are trying to be cool or something by sounding like travellers.
