    Re: Whats your fantastic word for the day

    I love living in a mixed Scottish/Irish flat as we regularly pick up on the different words we have for things, and even a few that are almost but not quite the same.

    Two recent examples of good Scots words:

    sook [sook] - to suck, to suckle, a teachers pet


    scunnert scunnered ['skunnert -d] - disgusted, bored, fed up, have ones hopes or expectations shattered


    Interestingly, the Irish have a similar word that means the same, but for some reason they stick a [d] in it - scundered - and I just don't think it has quite the same ring to it!

    (Note to any pedants out there - I've deliberately changed the pronunciation in brackets from IPA to layman's terms as not all the symbols were displaying properly.)

    Another Irishism is scuthered...has a few meanings e.g he was scuthered /drunk or he scuthered away /made a hasty retreat
    if you love the life you live then you'll get a lot more done

    warmth

    After 6 weeks without it, it's great to have it back through the radiators and hot water taps.
