Skrato

A term used to say “hello”, “how are you” or to show agreement depending on the situation, mainly used by an increasing number of gangs in Tyrrelstown, Dublin, Ireland. Not saying this is an offence to many revolving around the area. Can be pronounced as Skrah-toe or Skrah-taw.
It is sometimes used to say “calm down” when someone is about to brawl.

Skrato is a colloquial term native to the urban streets of Dublin used to define a white irish junkie, typically aged 12 - 23, who hangs around in groups of 3 - 5 (or more) with other skratos. They usually can be seen causing trouble and disturbances in public or urban areas across the Dublin area, especially in Corduff.

Everyone is saying that they can't find any older adult skrato but the truth is that they all moved to the city centre and usually come out at night as Adult Skrato. They are usually overconfident in groups, hence their reckless, antisocial behaviour. 78.5% of the groups typically have one skrato girl following them around, often being degraded/mistreated by the skratos.

Skratos often wear a grey/black nike tracksuit and a skin-fade haircut. Skratos are like bees, they only strive in groups and will most likely do nothing harmful to society or an individual on their own. They are very social amongst themselves and they are easily influenced by peer pressure which explains them longing to be in a group so that they can feel a sense of security.

Locals tend to not call the law enforcement on them because "Ah well, they’re just boys being boys relax, like" and their white male privilege making them only getting a knuckle on the scalp region by the Garda.
