praties

  1. plural of praty
    • c. 19th century, unknown author, Muirsheen Durkin
      Goodbye Muirsheen Durkin. Sure, I'm sick and tired of workin'. No more I'll dig the praties and no longer I'll be fooled.
      1993, “Galway Bay (song)” (track 83), in Bing: His Legendary Years 1931-1957, performed by Bing Crosby:
      For the breezes blowing o'er the sea from Ireland/Are perfumed by the heather as they blow; And the women in the uplands digging praties/Speak a language that the strangers do not know.
