Daithi	Folklore: Pogue Mahone (119* d)	RE: Folklore: Pogue Mahone	12 Feb 04
An Púca 7 Martin Ryan - I often wonder how much of this stuff really is folklore as M. R. suggests. How do you feel about "galore" = "go leor" or "shanty" = "sean tigh" (should be "teach sean", an ea?) On the other hand it's well established that words have entered English from the languages of countries at one time occupied by the British (e.g. Hindi words - khaki, dekho, snooker ? etc) - so why not from Irish? le gach dea ghui - Dáithí
