http://youtu.be/m2DxpraOQs0 Traditionally meaning 'small', if you're Northern Irish you just cannot stop using the word 'wee' in every sentence. They use it in Scotland to be sure, but not with the same gusto as Ulster folk. Everything in Northern Ireland is 'wee' - "Would you like a wee cup of tea?", "Would you take a wee seat there?" "I will be with you in a wee minute". It is a friendly overture to make things seem less daunting and more familiar. However, sometimes it lurches into the incredulous - "do you see that wee elephant over there?", "look at the size of that wee castle there", "yes there are lions in wee Africa".
