Massive is a term typically used only in Dublin (most commonly Tallaght) to describe something as being good or great.

Can also be used to say someone looks beautiful or stunning, however can get you into a lot of trouble if the recipiant doesn't understand the term.

Keep in mind that it's not something you'd say to describe somewhere or someone, but rather something (I.E., a artical of clothing, food, a night out.)

Instead you should say "They're the craic!" Rather than "They're massive." When referring to them alone.
