And my personal favourite:
A small useless potato - screamhachóir
Just like this shopping bag escapee I spotted recently.
Please don't take me to task over this all you scholars from the Gaeltacht - I don't speak the language and much of this post was drawn from a discussion forum here which I found while looking for some info on an aspect of the Cornish language.
Don't be a screamhachóir.
