Remember, almost every verb in Irish can be used to formulate a yes- or no-answer. And the good news is … some of them are used a lot more frequently than others. These include:

Known to many, the word is of Irish origin and is used when giving a toast. It is derived from the word slan which means whole, healthy and therefore in its basic form; it means health. However, it is usually combined with the word mhaith which is conjured from the word maith— which means good. Therefore, slaintѐ mhaith means ‘good health’.

Craic – A word with a few meanings. It can mean fun, going’s on or gossip. “What’s the craic” can also be used to say hello to someone meaning “hi, any gossip/how is it going”.

Don’t be loud, pretentious, or arrogant. Speak plainly and expect that what you say will be taken literally. You can expect the same of your Irish counterparts, though early banter and exaggerations shouldn’t be taken seriously. The Irish will not respond well to being pressured, so stay relaxed and do not be in a hurry.
