This collection of words/phrases were in everyday use when Christy O’Reilly was a young man, , especially in the greater Kealkill (Caorcuill) area.

Many of these words are remembered to this day. Do look in and see how much you can recall.

We are grateful to Eoin Warner for pointing us in this direction.
