Wisha is a Gaelic term, from “más ea,” that doesn’t translate simply into English. An exclamation, often used at the beginning of a sentence, alone or in conjunction with Yerra, it means “If it be so,” Well, well,” “Indeed…”
In the autobiography of Peig Sayers (Talbot Press, 1983), Peig is smoking her pipe when the cat and chickens end up in a big row. Startled, she drops and breaks her pipe in the melee. When her friend spots the shattered pieces he says,
“Wisha, that’s instead of some harm to your health, my good woman!”
