As a Spaniard who lived in Ireland for a good few years, can say with certainty you become bilingual once you understand a conversation between two drunk dubliners. In all seriousness, loved watching the vod and remembering when/how I learnt all these terms on the spot!
My fave use of the word yoke was by me Ma. We were in town (Dublin) and popped in to a shop with a bakery inside.
Me Ma, go love her, went up to the counter and said to the lady behind the counter " give us a couple of those yokes" The ladys face fell to the floor. " yokes?" says she, "yes" says me Ma" those yokes there behind ya" "we slaved all day making these" says yer one " and you call them yokes? " She was joking but me Ma apologized profusely any way. LMFAO
One you haven't given everyone yet is BLACK as in packed.
"don't bother coming to the club, it's black, ye'll never get in"
From the Midlands..."put the Welly down" (step on the gas) generally on a long, straight stretch of road.
"Me brain is melted" is a phrase I've heard.
Yes! My husband uses that 😅
The grand auld stretch 😂😂😂😂
When you mentioned 'yoke,' a bit of Philly slang came to mind for me. Here in the US, in Philadephia, the equivalent of the term 'yoke' is 'jawn.'
Easter is my Irish season I feel the most Irish . My grandmother was a huge easter person very religious and loved to make our candy by hand , our dyed eggs were works of art . Baskets that could have won awards with fresh ribbon and flowers . 💐 for my granmom who is still the center of my universe.
Oh, Jaysus! Your video is deadly, class, sound! Fair play! C'mere til I tell ya, you're number 1. When I see you, I'm on cloud nine. You have incredible, breathtaking, bewitching charm! Adore your voice. God bless you!

I come from the North West of Scotland, a few of these phrases/slang we use as well, it's always lashing down here 😂
I have family in Glasgow, love Scotland! Glad to hear we have a lot of similar phrases 😀💗
I too am a celt living in Canada . After 45 years here I still have that Falkirk accent😇😅😎
I love your presentation style. Like we're having a pint. We're an American family getting ready to visit, doing our research.
In south Louisiana we say “come see” which is basically the same as “come here to me”. I used it once in North Carolina to a coworker and she just stood there trying to figure out what I wanted her to see. Our hometown college mascot is the Ragin’ Cajuns. So I got 2 right away!!
😂😂 Come see can definitely be confusing! Give it a lash Ragin' Cajuns! 💗
Don’t even compare it
We say "look here" in Florida/Georgia/South Carolina
@@CrowDawg11I've heard that in Virginia too.
I love these vids, thank you! So excited to come back to Ireland in less than two weeks! Cheers from Michigan in the US.
My Irish American family who mostly live in or near the Irish area of the Bronx also say “In a state” and “state of you”. Hear it plenty from my aunts after my cousins have been out at the pubs 😂
😂 I love this!!
My dad's family (3rd generation born in the states, all around Boston area) also still used some of these phrases which sounded strange to me growing up as a child, but now makes a lot of sense. Especially: in a state, mind yourself -- also after, as in want to. "I'll be after going to see the teacher about you." RIP these sweet souls.
The intracicies of the english langusge. Especially in Ireland. The same word can mean so many things. It is situation dependant 🤣
This bring back school memories
Would you believe I got all nostalgic when you started talking about lashing rain?
It's been too long if you're missing lashing! 😅
Looking forward to Ireland in September. I’ve learned a lot from your channel, and love how charming you are!
An outstanding presentation...One thing is for certain, Wolfe Mamma is no Waffler. Well done & quite entertaining!
The easiest way to explain the second meaning of throwing shapes is to show the person a clip of Conor McGregor 😂
I am Indian, and I am learning alot from your videos.!!
I'm so glad to hear that! Thank you! 💗
One yay!!!
Planning a trip to Ireland soon (March 23) and so happy ur back!
Oh amazing! Where in Ireland will you be visiting? 💗
@@WolfeMomma hoping to get married in Slieve League, and a week to see all over. Food in Cork and St Patrick’s Day in Dublin are on the list but other than those three stops totally open (and if there’s a better spot for St Patrick’s Day open to that too). You tell me lol where should we go? What should we do and see?
I'm irish but love listening to you as I'm in london 👍
Thanks so much! 💗
I love this video.
Hey Wolfe, thanks for sharing your videos! I am enjoying them.
I miss that beautiful Irish accent ☘💚
I just love these videos. Sometimes it’s hard to think if slang words and phrases when you use them constantly. It’s just normal! Nice job 👍🏼👏🏼
‘Lack’! In Waterford, the lack, my lack is my girlfriend, similar to mott in Dublin.🙏
I am glad you are making videos again. It has been lashing, ever since you stopped, ...really! ...that is how I felt... ...and, now, that you're back, the sun is shining!
Thank you so much for your videos I am coming to Ireland on May 1, 2022 and this has helped my understanding so much
"Naff" was a (slang?) word I heard in Ireland that I don't think you covered in either Part 1 or Part 2. I flat out made my friends tell me the meanings right away. Also "faff" or "faffing" ! A very useful word because I don't think we have an American equivalent to it. In the 8 years I was there I never heard "giving it socks" which is a great expression! Thanks !
naff is english slang not irish
Yess! I’m so glad you’re back! Loved this video!
Thanks so much! So happy to be back 😀💗
That was great thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much for watching! 😀💗
Great to see you back! This could be something very out of date because my da said it: "Amn't I damn apt" for "there's no way in hell I'd do that"... I think it's not like "I will yeah" when you're just saying no. it's more like a sarcastic response when the idea of doing something is out of the question or preposterous, like "Take a job at that place? Amn't I damn apt". As I say it could be a very old thing, or maybe a Munster thing.
Yay! Glad to see your face today! Welcome back!
Thank you so much! So happy to be back 💗💗💗
Love your videos as always. Also welcome back to TH-cam.
Thank you!! I'm so happy to be back 💗💗💗
More please .
Yay you’re back. I just discovered your channel the other day and though it’s a shame you stopped posting… :) huge Ireland fan and all the vids are super interesting
Thanks so much! 💗
Hey Wolfe, I am your fans, very good to watch your video and know Irish culture from you. Just wondering if there is a transcript of the video is available? Could you please post the subtitle of the video here as you did to other videos. And many thanks.
Great to see you here again!!!!
Thanks so much! 💗
Happy New Year! Great to see you back!
Thank you so much, Happy New Year to you too! 💗
Thank you! Hope this year is wonderful for you and the family
Welcome back 🤗 and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Thank you! Happy New year to you too 😀💗
In a small city near me (Sask canada), they use the word 'wicked' like you use 'deadly'. It's the only place that I've heard it used that way and I can always tell if someone grew up around here.
Great to hear about similarities all over the world 😀💗
I’m from Southern SK and had no idea that “wicked” was a regional thing. 🤯
It is used in Boston as well.
In Maine, they have the Wicked Good Band.
@@patriciac7146 Yup, growing up outside of Boston we used wicked constantly as in very good. "The sledding was wicked good." Or just, "Wicked!!!!!" Then there was the classic: "Wicked Pissah!" which meant out of this world. Fun memories.
Hello dear teacher
Thank you so much for your help and advice,i highly appreciate your job. Take care and have a good time. All the best.
Your Student from Algeria.
Glad to see you again. Don't stop showing your programmes. A lot to learn from Irish/English. Very well presented and waiting for more.
Thank you so much! 💗

Thank you! Hope you're well too 😀💗
So the one of the archetypes of a waffler is uncle Colm in the series Derry girls if I get it right?
I just Love that you did these videos! Coming to Ireland for the first time in April and I am so excited! Do you have any "please don't do this when you visit us" videos? Or how to dress videos??? I am from California and pretty sure I shouldn't go everywhere in flip flops. You are so adorable and fun to watch
Please don't tell us that you are a third Irish, your American 😁
By all means wear flip-flops, April is our wet season so if you like wet toes, fire away.
Enjoy your trip.
@@ciaranodowdcod why does everone believe if anyone wants to go to Ireland that they will proclaim 3rd gen... before anyone ass-u-me that why not just ask why someone wants to come or go to Ireland that would be the correct way to start
Well done! Did you ever try to explain the Irish habit of including “ do you know what I mean” in every second sentence?
Lol forgot that one! Will need to include it in the next video 😄
My dad and oldest brother did that. 😍
For February, could you do a video on how to say I love you or I like you in Irish? Along with other slang/phrases about being in love or telling someone you love them; or any related topics? :)
I love this idea! Thanks so much for the suggestion, I'll definitely do it 😀💗
Yokes are also ecstasy pills
Wasn't sure if I should mention that 🙈😅
Bleedin' deadly video.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
YOU ARE THE ABSOLUTE BEST YOURSELF WOLFIE MOMMA 😂❤😂
my moms from dublin, she always said "skin and blister" = sister (flesh and blood)
"whats the Ally McGory" = whats the story, whats new.
Oh love this! "apples and pears" for stairs, "toblerone / tobler" for alone 😄💗
@@WolfeMommaThat sounds almost like Cockney rhyming slang.
Great video👍 and spot on with all the phrases. I also enjoyed the first video. So we’ll done❤️
January and raining? Don't feel too bad. I live in central Minnesota, US of A, and it was -38C last night w/ a 15kph breeze. What I wouldn't give for a good lashing.
Yikes sounds freezing! 🥶🥶Is it snowing? 💗
@@WolfeMomma It doesn't really snow when it gets that cold. The colder, the drier the air gets.
@@curiousman1672Yeah, it gets too cold to snow here in Illinois sometimes too.
Ó, a Dhia! I see and hear you again! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
D'ya speak Irish? Yeah, sure! I'm coddin' ya... Maith thú! Ádh mór!☘️☘️☘️❤️❤️❤️
físeán den scoth bean álainn👍😍👍😊💓😊💓😊
💓 Happy new year 2022💓
beannachtaí ó Mheicsiceo🇲🇽💓🇮🇪👏🌹👏🌹👏
Happy New year to you too! 🎉
❤❤
Happy new year 2022
Happy new year to you too! 🎉 💗
There also good man inn
What about "knacker?" As in "you look like a knacker!"
Do both of the Ireland's use these or is it only Republic of Ireland
My word for the day is waffler
dear Wolfemoma:How do i know if someone saying 'mind yourself'will infer to the positive address as explained first?
You'll know it by the tone. If it's said in a nice lighthearted way it's meant positively. If its said in a threatening way, you'll know it's a threat. Hopefully no one ever says it to you the second way! 😅
Is your last name Wolfe? Because my great grandmum was full blood Irish and my last name is Wolfe. Even though I'm a blonde, I was born ginger.
Out hear .....probably comes from " get out a here "..I don't believe you... or that's amazing
👍☺️
💗💗
Scarlett comes from Scarlet Letter you would have to wear a Scarlet Letter because you had done something shameful "the Scarlet letter'' is classic literature classic
How do you say & pronounce I miss you in Irish?
Yurt!
Do you have a plan to publish book realated in Ireland?!
Never thought about it but I like that idea ☺️
"Go get the clothes before they get wet" what's the phrase?
Probably just a swear word 😅😅
Now that you’ve done waffler, what about gobshite?
Irish slang is very similar to Australian slang. I wonder who invented it.🇮🇪🇦🇺
Maybe it's similar because many of the people who came to Australia were irish prisoners?
How she Cuttin..... well she's looking Sharp
Eejit me. What does a "brat' mean bcoz my modder call me that.
Howaya!
Argey bargey. Do you know this one?
I love how the more she talks, the fainter her accent becomes.
hat does shifting mean. said like i just shifted him
Shifting in that context means that I just dated him.
Is this slangs originated from Irish to english.
"Shes' some sketch" Look at the state of her or how's she's dressed.
Lived in. Ireland all my life. Never heard most of these words. But I don’t use slang
I personally prefer this form - C'mere til I tell ya... This is more Irish, more slang.
If you grew up in Boston you would say.... get out a here
Your accent sounds very American at times.
Lol its a total muddle, I'm half Canadian so I have a twang 😄
I hear Irish people use the word loads all the time.
Go way = get out
You don't even look irish (kidding)
