Thread Name: What do the Irish call the British Isles
Subject: RE: BS: What do the Irish call the British Isles
Depends what you mean by British Isles. Ireland is a republic not part of Britain, except for Northern Ireland. I'm Scottish and I generally call the rest of it (Scotland, England, Wales, Northern Ireland) the UK or Britain.
