Death by asphyxia by submersion in water. Types of drowning: * Wet drowning, water enters the lungs. * Dry drowning, your larynx closes so no air may enter the lungs. * Secondary drowning, a drop of water may enter the lungs, and up to 72hrs later you could die from a build up of liquid in the lungs. Asphyxia - a state in which the body becomes deprived of oxygen.

What does the st patricks custom drowning the shamrock entail?

My guess would be it's a insider-phrase of getting drunk, or "wetting the pipes."The meaning of "drowning the shamrock" is from years past in Ireland.The Shamrock was worn to show unity and to show the Trinity. As the men worn their shamrock on their left breast of their chest they would celebrate St. Patrick's day most times in the local pub.Now here is where drowning the shamrock gets it's meaning. The very last drink of the night the guys would place their shamrock into the drink that they would have and since it was in the drink it was called; drowning the shamrock.I had heard this from my Grandmother when I was younger.
