Construct:	Noun
Definition:	A haw, the berry of the whitethorn.
Use:	We were picking skeories. We were picking haws.
Derivation:	Irish 'Sceachóir' - a haw, the fruit of the dog-rose. But note 'Skeory', the latter meaning has never been heard of by the author, the fruit of the dog-rose is commonly known as hips, 'itchy-backs', 'jacky-dorys'. (Ó h-Éaluithe). Note 'Itchy-backs' - the seed of the haws or dog-roses was taken, a light fluffy irritant, and pushed down inside children's clothes to cause itchiness, hence 'itchy-backs'.
