"Tree Terty": we have been saying this over and over again, but it never loses its charm. For some reason, it tickles "us Americans" to death when an Irish lad (or las) says this phrase. Or any other "th" word for that matter. Only being in Dungarvan, Ireland a few days, we have already picked up some of the lingo. Listed below are some "say what?" moments I have had in the past few days in my new home.
"Half-past nine" = 9:30
"Bob" = Bucks
"Orange Juice with Bits" = OJ with Pulp
"Chips" = French Fries
"Are you ok?" = What do you want to drink?
"Bonnet" = hood of car
More to come!
