¿Tendrá traducción? no creo, pero me gusta la que propone Cecilia, \"Irlandesh\", o, ¿Qué te parece \"Orlandes\"? Jajajaja:)))

Ahora en serio, te propongo \"Genuino de Irlanda\" o \"Típico irlandés\"

agree  MJ Barber: correct, it is clichéd Irishness. Guinness and shamrocks and St. Patrick and singing in the pubs.

Explanation:
A decir verdad nunca escuché Oirish en mi vida... aún habiendo vivido en Bondi Junction de Sydney durante una buena temporada. Así que me mató la curiosidad, y he hallado esta perlita: "I'm half Welsh, and the only thing that I recognise as being authentically Welsh about a bar is the availability of Brain's SA (which does well to travel more than a few miles from Cardiff without going off). As for the Irish Bar, I think we should distinguish between the real Irish bar (as in those you find in the west of Ireland), which tend to be either the local shop and post office with a bar in it (honestly!) or a bar that also sells soap, corn flakes and stamps. Wherein you ask for a 'pint of stout', and that's a good job because that's probably all they've got apart from harp lager. Local bands do turn up and provide genuine irish music, but it is a random and laid back kind of affair. They also don't shut till everyone leaves. They are brilliant.
This contrasts with what I would call the 'Oirish Bar' which is basically a big cavern of a pub with the obligatory 'Oirish' memorabilia, Pogues sound track etc. They are crap.
Incidentally, as an aside, di you know that the Pogues get their name from the phrase "Pogue ma hona"(someone can correct my poor gaelic spelling) which is gaelic for "Kiss my arse?". Móntate tus conclusiones, pero ahí arriba tienes mi versión del asunto. Un saludico :-)
