An Irish word meaning foolish, rambling talk -- nonsense or idle chat without substance or purpose. As a verb it means to talk such nonsense. The term is informal and conversational, used when someone is going on with silly or meaningless words. It carries mild, amused disdain rather than serious condemnation -- more of a gentle dismissal than an outright accusation.

No comments yet — say something.
Irish English for talking nonsense or idle chatter — the kind of rambling, unfocused talk that goes nowhere and says nothing useful. As a noun, rameish means the nonsense itself. It's a wonderfully dismissive word; calling something rameish suggests the speaker isn't just wrong but fundamentally wasting your time. Common in Irish vernacular, it captures a mild exasperation that doesn't quite rise to insult.
He's been going on with rameish for an hour and we're no closer to a decision.
