An old joke: two provos are sitting in a pub when an untrustworthy character enters.
One provo says "an gceapann tú gur ‘informer’ é?

I won’t pretend I didn’t use google translate there
(For those who don’t speak Irish:

"Do you think he’s an informer?
Ní ceapaim.
means: “I don’t think so.”
Is pronounced, more or less: “Knee-cap’im”)
