Waterford English

The one thing you will notice when you go to Waterford is that they have a wonderful way with the English language. They have slang words and sayings you just don’t hear anywhere else in the country, or the world for that matter! So to make sure you don’t get confused at any time while on your Waterford stag party, here is a list of Waterford slang words and sayings and their meanings. There might even be a few you’ll end up using when you get home.

Our Favourite Waterford Slang

“I’d Ate De Bollix Off A Low Flying Duck” – Which means “I’m quite peckish.”

“Were You Made In The Glass Factory” – Which means “You’re standing in front of the TV and get out of the way. We can’t see through you”. This one is good to know in case there is a match on and you’re blocking the TV.

“I Wouldn’t Meet Her With A Shoulder, Boi” – Which means “She’s not an attractive woman.”

“Tongue On Me Like Gandhi’s Flip Flop” –  Which means “I have awful dry mouth, which is the result of the excess alcohol that was consumed last night” on the stag party of course.

“G’way, I Wouldn’t Ride Ya Inta Battle” – Which means “Apologies, but you’re not my type.”

“You’re About As Useful As A Kilkenny Man With A Football” – Which means “You are beyond useless.”

“G’way Boi, I Wouldn’t Even Poke Her On Facebook” – Which means “She’s a lovely girl but not for me.”

Waterford Slang Terms

Also a few words that you should be aware off just in case they pop up mid conversation and you’re wondering what the hell are they on about.

“Slack” – Which means “Harsh or Unfair” and not loose or a type of casual trousers.

“Haboo” – This is a popular one that people always wonder about. What’s the meaning of haboo? Quite seemly, it means “Sleep” and is not just something you say to entertain a toddler while playing peek-a-boo.

“Lack” – Which means “Boyfriend/Girlfriend or someone of the opposite sex”. Often used in sentences like “See the Lack over there” and “She’s some Lack!”.

“Gallybander” – This means nothing to most people, but it’s a “Slingshot Implement”. So run if someone threatens to use that on you.

“Well Boi” – This means “Hello” regardless of age or gender.
