The Book of Feckin' Irish Slang: That's Great Craic for Cute Hoors and Bowsies

Unable to tell if you're shattered, gammy or manky? Not sure if you're fluthered, langered or bollixed? If not (or if you *think* you know), then this book is for you! This funny little book describes all sorts of nouns, verbs, adjectives, sayings and expressions used by the Irish today, aided by witty cartoon figures. Each word is defined and an example given of how to use it. For example: JAR (n) Pint of beer or stout. (usage "I'm dying for a jar. The court will adjourn until 2pm.") If you know anything about Ireland and her way of life the entries are that much more amusing but a newbie to Ireland's culture will be able to follow along and enjoy just as easily. The book is small, about 4" wide by 7" tall and has 2 or 3 entries per page, 64 pages total, which makes for a quick, light read. Some of the language, subjects and drawings are not for delicate eyes but overall it's harmless fun; and you just may learn a thing or two about how to talk or at least try to understand what some cute hoor is blatherin' on about.
