Dish of cooked cabbage fried with cooked potatoes and other vegetables. Often made from the remains of the Sunday roast trimmings. Bubble and squeak for Brits.
Gaelic for Fun. Also used as a greeting. "What's the craic?" Pronounced like "crack"
Brilliant slang as everywhere else in
the world associates the pronounciation
of this word (as in "crack") with drugs
rather than just plain fun Comment by: Dools Rated:5/5
also used a lot in scotland. can be used
to say that someone has good chat or
good banter, i.e "good craic". Comment by: blair
Crack is not originally a Gaelic word.
It's a dialectic English word that is
used very commonly in Ireland. It has
gone into Gaelic now as "craic". But in
English it should still be spelt "crack" Comment by: Joe
"Crack is not originally a Gaelic
word"....
No it's not! It's originally an Irish
word you ignorant buffoon Comment by: The Real Deal
No 'craic' is not originally Irish,
it's a dialect of English, and don't
forget the written form of Irish Gaelic
was invented by an Englishman, it had to
be since the Irish were illiterate, and
often called bog-trotters in the
vernacular. Comment by: Brian Baroo Rated:1/5
