fiacais

in the conversational Gaelic of Eigg & Uist, is the more or less courteous retort to inquisitive folk — càite an robh thu? bha, aig cùl na fiacais, where have you been? at the back of the fiacais; dé a tha agad an-sin? tha, greim dhen fhiacais, what have you got there? a piece of the fiacais. In some places an expostulatory exclamation — fhiacais na bàth an teine! dear me, do not drown the fire! “'Fhiacais phrìseil!” is a common expression of surprise in Argyllshire.
