Writer and dramatist, Manchán Magan on the pure drop: Irish-language words and expressions you won't find in any dictionary especially for Seachtain na Gaeilge on Sunday Miscellany.
Manchán ponders on what could you possibly do for a language that's two or three thousand years old during Seachtain na Gaeilge.
Magan says his favourite words as Gaeilge are 'specific, a little bit quirky and somewhat magical'. From a sore on the ball of your foot to an aphrodisiac, the words Manchan chooses aren't in dictionaries but in caint na ndaoine.
