The term brogue (/broʊɡ/BROHG) generally refers to an Irish accent. Less commonly, it may also refer to certain other regional forms of English, in particular those of Scotland or the English West Country.
The word was first recorded in 1689. Multiple etymologies have been proposed: it may derive from the Irishbróg ("rough or stout shoe"), the type of shoe traditionally worn by the people of Ireland and the Scottish Highlands, and hence possibly originally meant "the speech of those who call a shoe a 'brogue'". It is also possible that the term comes from the Irish word barróg, meaning "a hold (on the tongue)", thus "accent" or "speech impediment". A famous false etymology states that the word stems from the supposed perception that the Irish spoke English so peculiarly that it was as if they did so "with a shoe in their mouths".
Brogue is a roguelike computer video game created by Brian Walker. It has been in development since 2009. As in its predecessor Rogue, the goal of Brogue is for the player (represented by the character @) to descend to the 26th floor of the Dungeons of Doom, retrieve the Amulet of Yendor, and return to the surface. This task is complicated by the presence of monsters and the labyrinthine generation of the dungeon. Brogue has been called "sadistic", "streamlined", and its use of ASCII graphics has been highly praised.
More nightmares Someone wake me when they're through Stop my lover's ghost from trying to protrude (You're burning, you're burning) It's chaotic, but I've got it You're letter scratched across my throat Like some painter's ink, spilled the canvas soiling parts of me Cover up, cover up, all the fusion's lost I know this sucks but one day you'll meet up I miss the softness of your sound The taste of you left in my mouth Is Mississippi done yet burning? Sick sounds like stomach's stinging I search out, but you cannot be found A red horizon in the south Is Mississippi done yet burning? Most nights bleat every feeling I must get back to you somehow I must get back to you Your shadow Now lies against the moon The skin I touched that once Kissed has come unglued (You're burning, you're burning) It's chaotic, but I've got it More screams than anyone should hear The voice of you stabs in my chest Forged and faithless Cover up, cover up, all the fusion's lost I know this sucks but one day you'll meet up I miss the softness of your sound The taste of you left in my mouth Is Mississippi done yet burning? Sick sounds like stomach's stinging I search out, but you cannot be found A red horizon in the south Is Mississippi done yet burning? Most nights bleat every feeling I must get back to you somehow I must get back to you Darling boy Lift your chin up for me now For my face to see And I am smiling looking down I know you're out of breath You're hit by the way I've left Just hold me tried and true For I'll be waiting Waiting here for you So dim these lights, I won't be found This haunting stops right here and now There's pain and in his eyes of fixed dreaming I'm tired without you, so let it be So dim these lights, I won't be found This haunting stops right here and now There's pain in his eyes of fixed dreaming I'm tired without you, so let it be Is Mississippi done yet burning? Most nights bleat every feeling I must get back to you somehow
