The Dictionary Of Hiberno-English
The Dictionary of Hiberno-English is the leading reference book on Hiberno-English the form of English commonly spoken in Ireland. It connects the spoken and the written language, and is a unique national dictionary that bears witness to Irish history, struggles and the creative identities found in Ireland. Reflecting the social, political, religious and financial changes of peoples ever-evolving lives, it contains words and expressions not usually seen in a dictionary, such as kibosh, smithereens, Peggys Leg, hames, yoke, blaa, banjax and lubán. It is a celebration of an irrepressible gift for the creative, expressive and reckless manipulation of the English language!
