Top ten Irish love sayings for Valentine’s Day

I totally agree with "Bocktherobber" and "Dicanio71". That's the reason I stuck in my own three sayings, tongue in cheek and just as much total rubbish as the supposed "Irish" sayings. Where on earth does Irish Central get this garbage from? Certainly not from Ireland! Éamonn, Dublin. (Begorah and Bejabers!)

half the potato really? I grew up in Dublin and never heard any of these sayings in all me life.. I know its almost st practice season but this is what ye have come up with..surely to god ye can get away from all this satge oirish, pigs in the parlour, top of the morning shamrock schtick..it's down right embarrassing and insulting to irish people to suggest that this sorta Disney land schtick ever came outta anyone claiming to be irish..please stick to the news, editorials , sport and social commentary and don't insult of intelligence with this half potato , begorrah be gosh drivvle.. go raibh mhaith agat.. johnny v..

Irish sayings? I'm afraid not, unless someone moved Nashville.

I like #7 & 10 the most. Thanks @Seanmor for posting some other words of endearment in Irish.

"I couldn't take my eyes off you - and then I hit the rocks". "My knees are trembling as I gaze at you - I think I have the flu". "You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen - what's this your name is again?" (Just a few I thought up on the spur of the moment) Éamonn, Dublin.

I've always found it poignant that a people so crushed and ravished could maintain our spirit of hope, love, confidence, humor. The Irish spirit is the most beautiful in the world. Surely, when God banished man from the Garden, He moved the Garden beyond the shores and planted it in the sea for the richest spirits to inhabit ... and the world has tormented her our of jealousy ever since.

In the Irish languagee (which many politicial leaders, hight ranking clergy and the mainstream media has for long totally rejected)there are many terms of endearment. One is these is listed as #1 in the above list "cuisle mo chroí" (pulse of my heart). Other such terms are "mo sheoid" (my jewel), "a ghra gheal" (my bright love), "mo mhuirín" (my darling).

Marry in haste and repent at leisure.

Half the potato? Steady, folks -- It's only February. Saint Paddywhackery Day is still more than a month away.
