- Glad the pronunciation was included in the googles lol
- Who comes up with words like that one, which I’m too lazy to type?
- I thought it was going to be fear of little hippos … I put hippos, because idk plural of hippopotamus… with an es or i… hippopotamuses or hippopotomi … I like the sound of the latter word, so there’s my verdict re the plural form. Case closed lol

Also, all the Irish slang/expletives that are part of my vocabulary thanks to being around my Dad for 30 years (and spending quite a bit of time in the old country myself). Favorite word from that basket is “langer”.

Had to google langer. 2 definitions from the googles lol, which I guess could mean the same thing. Read it could be a surname as well. “Mr. Langer” lol
This scoop was the 1st nugget of profound knowledge I gleaned from this fine forum today. Thanks & HaPpY FriYaY! (-:
My husband uses cacaphony all the time…I no longer like this word.

Hahaha well I hope you can find a use for it!
I think “langer” is specific to the part of Ireland my family is from (Cork), I think at some point I had read it’s not commonly used elsewhere, but I could be mistaken.
Another good one is “feck”, which is essentially just another version of “fuck”, but less severe. Although I still haven’t quite figured out the difference after all these years, I’m under the assumption that feck is considered somewhat more polite…but that’s based solely on that my grandmother only said “feck”, never the proper f-word…and she sure did say feck a lot

That’s so cute … I really like that. Made me laugh. It remind me of the old Father Ted program where the old retired priest always shout the feck word

LOVE Father Ted. Haven’t seen it in a long time, I need to get it on DVD or something. They used to show the English/Irish shows on public broadcast here when I was little (Father Ted, Mr Bean, Are you Being Served, Keeping Up Appearances, etc), loved watching that stuff with my Dad. Wish they still did that.
