         so far...  i'm getting the sense that   
                   Bog Latin (in Ireland)  comes in (at least)  2  forms :   
      
      
   1.  looks much like  real Latin, with some humorous vocab   
                                      -- the kind used by James Joyce   
                                           in his letters to friends   
      
      
   2.  rougher and slangy...  (like Shelta?)   
      
          e.g.     liber  means  "sea"  ------ used in FW (Finnegans Wake)   
                   sabar  means  "eye"   
      
      
   ------  just  these 2 samples (liber, sabar)   suggest that...   
                     (Vocab -wise)   
                     There's no overlap between the 2 forms (of Bog Latin)
