Seachain.
What happened to the girl who fell in school?- She banged her
scoil.
A unique collection of groan-worthy puns, clever wordplay, and plenty of laughs inspired by the Irish language. From a student who is “sooooo bord” in class to a man who doesn’t have a second to “spéir,” each joke plays on the similarities between Irish and English words, turning ordinary situations into unexpected punchlines. Whether you're learning Irish, love a good pun, or just enjoy a bit of linguistic messing, this book offers a light-hearted look at the humour hidden in everyday words. Be warned: the jokes may be uafasach, but that's exactly the point.
