Originally from the travellers' cant language which meant woman. But now used most commonly in Limerick City to describe a good looking girl

I read some of these and I wanted to say that 'beor' doesn't mean bitch or babe, it just means girl and it isn't just used in Limerick. It's used all over Ireland. I'm Irish so don't assume I'm wrong. Also, it's not just a traveller's word.
"Hey, beor!"

The gaelic for BEER used for a girl/chick/lash/ho WRONGLY.
Some drunk lad from lets say limerick if it is so widely used there as the above person states. Must have got drinks mixed up
Fíona meaning WINE and Beor meaning BEER are usually found on the same page of basic irish books, usually in, the food and drink secion. Somehow this drunk probably in 4th class has started a tradition of calling a girl a beor (beer) and knacker(guy) a Fíon(wine).
If things were right itd be the other way around. But theres no hope.
