Gallivanting with words is a playful romp through the words, phrases and quirks that reflect the very soul of Ireland. From the Shakespearean roots of ‘We’ll have the tay’ to the devilish curses of old Ireland, ‘May the devil make a ladder of your spine’, this is a joyful exploration of the language that makes us, well, us.

Take a tour around the country, from Cork to Connemara, tracing the words and expressions that set each place apart. Revel in the genius of the GAA sideline slagging, the poetry of a sneaky shift and the unapologetic charm of a well-placed curse.

Warm, witty and brimming with Irish identity, this is a love letter to the way we speak and the stories our words carry.
