At the risk of embarrassment for suggesting a topic that may or may not have been already on this forum, I would like to be reminded of or made aware of typical NI, specifically local to Lisburn, sayings, phrases or words and what they mean.
I previously tried to get the origin of "duncher" but so far have not been very successful.

Excodowner,
I think the word duncher was a hat probally came from the word dunce, me think, or something on the head.(logic)

Hi,
I googled it and a duncher is a flat cap that used to be worn by shipyard workers at Harland & Wolff in Belfast.

I know what a duncher is, I have none, but where did the word come from?

Woopps, I meant I have one.

Hi excodowner,
I should have been cleaning my house but I've been googling duncher cap for the last hour. Even checked in my book called "Speakin norn iron as she shud be spoke" by Doreen Mc Bride. I saw familiar words like...bake, bucketin, stickin out, poke. No wonder these Canadians didn't understand a word I said when I was a new immigrant.
