Shoneenism

(重定向自Shoneen)

Shoneenism is an Irish term for Anglophile snobbery. One suggested etymology is seoinín, "Little John", referring to John Bull. The term is always uncomplimentary; the diminutive ending ‘een’ (Gaelic ín), when used in this manner has a loading of contempt. The shoneen or adherent of shoneenism, is characterized by his admiration for the people and culture of upper class England, and by his corresponding disdain for his native customs and traditions, especially the Gaelic language, Gaelic games and traditional music.
