FWIW language is for communicating concepts and if people understand it it is the right word. the word police have no jurisdiction with teenagers ! Neither the marketing fraternity. & Don't even mention estate agents!

Now which meaning and era do you want for "hot" or "cool"? Or:
gay - heterosexually promiscuous, happy & outgoing, or homosexual? Pick your era (give or take 100 years).

Language isn't static, the French know that (in actualité).

Dave H: it's actually spelled "Ceili House"
RTE Radio 1 Ceili House
in line with the usual Irish spelling.

Mr Red, "Fleadh" in recent times refers to a music festival, mostly music and singing often with an element of competition, usually taking place over several days, rather than an evening.

Mr Red, sorry, was that a reply to me? Are you saying Kidlington has a Fleadh? I'd be interested to hear more about it.

Whitbread (remember them?) did Trophy real ale all over the country but it was a different beer brewed by their nearest brewery, depending where you were. Greenall Whitley did something similar.
