Gaelic for Beginners
So you want to talk Irish, eh? Here's some Gaelic for you
to try out when you visit Mickey Cassidy's.
First and most important...
Pionta Guinness le do thoil. - A pint of Guinness please.
Of course you should be polite when you get your pint...
Thank you - Go raibh maith agat
How about a toast?
cheers - sláinte
Then perhaps you could try...
Where do you come from? - Cá as duit?
And if Mickey tells you dún do bheal tell
him to Póg mo thóin!

| Irish joke of the moment |
|
An English man and an Irish man are driving head on , at night, on a twisty, dark road. Both are driving too fast and collide on a sharp bend in the road. To the amazement of both, they are unscathed, though their cars are both destroyed. In celebration of their luck, both agree to put aside their dislike for the other from that moment on. At this point, the Irish man goes to the boot and fetches a 12 year old bottle of Jameson whiskey. He hands the bottle to the English man, whom exclaims,'' may the English and the Irish live together forever, in peace, and harmony.'' The English man then tips the bottle and lashes half of it down. Still flabbergasted over the whole thing, he goes to hand the bottle to the Irish man, whom replies: '' no thanks, I'll just wait till the police get here!''
