Especially in Belfast you will be asked in a restaurant by the server, "are yiz gettin", as in can I help you. My mother used to refer to being starved with the cold. Bap is a bun like a hamburger bun. Mingin' and boggin' are used to describe something that is dirty. Its fascinating to find some of these words cropping in other places.
