oinseach
noun
a female fool IRELAND- Not long ago I was having a quiet drink in a certain pub in a certain southern county when the gushing alewife shouted over our heads that a Government minister was on his way and that we should all stand up when he came in the door, like, “as a matter of etiquette”. I am glad to be able to report that people fell off bar stools laughing at the poor oinseach, and that your man was completely ignored when he did arrive with his retinue. — Irish Times, 10 March 2001
