Examples of use would be a reply to the question, 'How was your evening?' such as 'Aye, it was good crack', meaning 'I had a good time'. A popular way to start a conversation on the Internet and texting is 'What's the craic/crack?' meaning 'Any news?' or 'Any gossip?' It is sometimes written as 'what's da craic?, which is sometimes abbreviated to 'wdc'.
A person who is 'good crack' is fun to be with. Crack is, by default, positive: 'good crack', 'great crack', 'the crack was ninety' or 'the crack was mighty'. In Irish, 'Bhà craic againn' is 'We had a good time', and 'Bhà an-chraic againn' is 'We had a great time'.
However, 'bad crack' is also used occasionally.
The 'news' sense of crack is used in the singular in Hiberno-English, although originally Scots used the plural:
Scots: 'Gie's your cracks. Whit's aw the news in the toun?'
Hiberno-English / Mid-Ulster English: 'What's [or How's] the crack?' [Typical response: 'Nothing much.']
Irish: 'Cad é an craic leat?' ['What's new with you?'] |

"what's the craic" means "how are you, any news"; that type of thing. "craic" by itself kind of means fun |

It does NOT mean what's up, hello, or anything like that.
"Craic" is a Gaelic word for "fellowship, conversation, company, people to hang out with."
If you're coming out of a pub, and someone going in asks, "How's the craic?" he wants to know how the scene inside is--is it happening, is it full of people, are those people in a good mood that will make for a fun evening? Is there a jam session about to happen? That sort of thing.
He is NOT asking about your ***, in any way shape or form. ;) |

Hmmm.... Well, it's something they ask in Ireland. If somebody says "What's the craic", tell them what you think of the place your at or the place he's asking about. Generally you hear this in relation to pubs, bars, etc. Places where people hang out.
I've also heard that craic means talk, like gossip, but I'm not sure that's the right definition. |
