'''Yola''', more commonly and historically the '''Forth and Bargy dialect''', is an extinct dialect of the [[Middle English language]] once spoken in the [[barony (Ireland)|baronies]] of [[Forth (County Wexford barony)|Forth]] and [[Bargy]] in [[County Wexford]], Ireland. As such, it was probably similar to the [[Fingallian]] dialect of the [[Fingal]] area. Both became functionally extinct in the 19th century when they were replaced by modern [[Hiberno-English]]. The word {{lang|yol|yola}} means {{gloss|old}} in the dialect.<ref>{{cite book |last= Hickey |first= Raymond|title= Dublin English: Evolution and Change |year= 2005 |publisher= John Benjamins Publishing |isbn= 90-272-4895-8 |pages=238}}</ref> In modern times, there have been efforts to [[Language revival|revive]] the dialect.
