Story Bud? Ever had a problem with understanding Dublinese? Well this video will help you to decipher some of the more common phrases heard around the capital.

Sometimes it can be hard trying to understand the slang that comes out of the mouths of Dubliners (and this is coming from a Dublin man). So Jenny Keogh decided to tackle the issue with this great little video, by explaining what various phrases and city slang actually mean.

Jenny says on YouTube: The first in a series of short films by Jenny Keogh celebrating Irish slang & phrases. ‘Story Bud?’ features Dubliners.

The first in a series? Where will Jenny be heading next? Cork? Mayo? Donegal? The options are endless and we have a feeling she’s onto a winner with this series.

The above video, titled Story Bud, features Dee Ronan, Amy Ronan, Ken Keogh, Austin Hearne, Kelvin Feeney, Jillian Rafferty, Maria Collins, Ray Collins, Dee Duffy, Amanda Walsh Breen, Paul Breen, Woody Sargent, and James Sargent.
