corkonian

Of, relating to, or characteristic of Cork.

But there is nothing malevolent in the Corkonian mode of levying toll upon old residents and new comers; […] priests with frowning faces, and queer-looking little boys with funny ones, and a miscellaneous lot of noisy patriots always going to shout and hear others shout at “the meeting,” are constant and prominent features in Corkonian life.

Then every one was complaining about the high price of labor, and it was supposed that a Chinese “nurseman,” at two dollars and a half a month, would be a decided improvement over a French bonne with watery eyes and a Corkonian accent, and that a cook who could make at least tolerable dishes at four dollars a month would be better than one who charged seventy-five dollars for the privilege of spoiling provisions.

A native or inhabitant of Cork.

Vivacious and versatile, beyond the average even of Irishmen, the Corkonians mingle raillery with their hospitality, and cut up cattle and human nature with a trenchant ease and constant energy, as if they had taken a government contract to victual the State with beef and satire, fresh jokes and pickled pork at the same time.

To the sellers in the market, to the barmen and barmaids, to the beggars who importuned him for a lob Mr Dedalus told the same tale, that he was an old Corkonian, that he had been trying for thirty years to get rid of his Cork accent up in Dublin and that Peter Pickackafax beside him was his eldest son but that he was only a Dublin jackeen.
