An Irish slang word to describe a specific group of people. Scarily, the connotations associated with describing someone as a skanger are almost identical to those associated with describing someone as a charva in Britain, despite the fact that these words refer to completely different groups of people in different countries.
In Ireland, they're called skangers, in Britain, charvas.

Dublin's version of a townie. Loud, rude and obnoxious people, usually the type to start a fight with a "rocker" or at least give them a hard time. Overall not nice person.

A person who listens to hardhouse music and wears tracksuits, hoodys (sometimes a hat) and sport a flat spikey haircut, well its kinda hard to explain. They wear striped shirts, jeans and a load of chains for discos (mostly teenage.) Usually from kipholes like Dublin and in local towns eg. Carrickmacross, Ardee, Dundalk. Usually talk like this "well wats the craic" or "wats da story??"
A typical skanger: Sam Ward (well the faggot pretends to be)
Skangers are related to chavs
