Tara - Terribly: 'Those boys are tara through other'. It can also strangely be used to describe dislike for something: 'That bacon's not tara '

I never understood this.
That's tara = That's terrible.
That's not tara = That's terrible.




It's a wee bit more subtle than that.

That's not tara = That's not very good
Therefore 'tara' means very good and terrible.

WTF?

Sure are you not a gaeilgeoir? If you get your head around the verb 'caith' having seven different meanings, that should be easy

Why does Throne-Spake not have the same legal status as Ballymena Ulster Scots?

Down our way, I've never heard scundered to mean anything else but embarrassed.
