"Gruth do Thadhg agus meadhg do na cailíni" (proverb), "the best of everything for the menfolk (lit. Curds for Tadhg [typical man's name]) and whey for the girls". Here are a few more cailíni: Cailín aimsire - a hired female (seasonal) labourer. Cailín cumhra - a careful, sensible, wise type of girl. Cailín báire - a tomboy. Cailín Domhnaigh - a lazy, well-dressed girl (literally “Sunday girl”). #ireland #slang #language
