Obfuscate has become quite popular
There has been a marked âuptickâ in the clicks.
âsuch and such is only a codâ
itâs permeated beyond the pandemic and the leaving cert is another example.
Iâve been working from home with weeks
Weâve been training away with weeks
Etc.
Basically with instead of for. I know fellas will say itâs a limerick tipp munster phrase but never heard anyone say it

I think âaginâ is a Tipp/Kilkenny thing. Liam Sheedy often says it in interviews which Iâm sure senior management in Bank Of Ireland snigger at.
I think âwithâ instead of âforâ is a Kerry and possibly Cork thing.

In KK at least, agin means against. Examples would be âhittin a ball up agin a wallâ or âweâre up agin Carrigeen in the first round of the Specialsâ.
