Irish Words

Hello friends. I've been living in Ireland a few months now, and since I've been here, I've learned a few strange words or phrases that might have some weird meaning that English people aren't used to. So I'm going to list the ones i can think of right now and add any that occur to me later. Here we go:

That's gas: That's funny
Deadly: Awesome or cool
Your man/woman: A man or woman that is the subject of a conversation
Runners: Trainers (Sneakers in America)

Press: Cupboard 

Hot press: Airing cupboard. This:

Black: Busy. Example "it's black on the beach during the summer"
Skanger: Chav

Roar: shout

Giving out: having a go

Lashing: raining

Chipper: chippie (chip shop)

Scarlet: red faced, usually with embarrassment

Lashing: raining

Now in a sec/,ow in a minute: neither now, in a second, or in a minute. Usually in a few minutes, if you're lucky

Wrecking my head: annoying me

Kip: mess 

That's all I can think of for now. I'll add more at a later date as they come to me. I'll try not to leave it as long between blog posts. It's just a quick one to show you all I'm not dead.
