[@CURACHrecords]

That is a horrible translation(Harry potter) from English into Scots, that's not 'braid' scots anyway. Really more plugging in Scots words and keeping English grammar.

[@CURACHrecords]

Glaikit/ Glakid is a Scotch-Irish american scots word. (West PA dialect/Appalachia)

[@CURACHrecords]

"reek" to smoke

I spent a few months in Stranraer and Glasgow in the late 1950s. In Glasgow, I had trouble understanding them for a while, but eventually conquered most Glaswegian. However, Scots still came up. I remember folk talking about someone being a wee bit glaykid (stupid) and someone having a wee bit of trouble with his een (eyes). I've deliberately spelt them in the way they were pronounced. Sadly, dialects and the like are disappearing fast. Although a Londoner, I used to live in Portsmouth in the 50s to 70s. I recall the Waterloo to Portsmouth train pulling into Havant, about 10 miles from Portsmouth. The announcer would say, "' avant, this is 'avant. Change 'ere for the Broiton Loin, : change 'ere for 'ayling Oiland"! Sadly, the 'ampshire Burr's gone and they sound like Londoners now.

[@CarlsLingoKingdom]

I hate that dialects die out.

[@crossleydd42]

@@CarlsLingoKingdom Me, too, and so quickly nowadays!

[@CURACHrecords]

The West PA spelling (yes U.S. Scotch Irish) was noted as "Glakid"

[@CURACHrecords]

@@CarlsLingoKingdom Well, the dialects have diverged because of the 3 centuries of degradation through Scottish English becoming the higher prestige language. There are other theories that Scots longevity as a non-stanardized language has been aided by these dialect regions/towns. Ulster(Scots) itself has a few variant 'dialect' /accent regions . The further from the central belt of scotland (borderds, orkney, ulster) you actually have retention of 'older' grammatical and phonological features.

Tapadh leibh airon sin a Charl. Bha e glè inntinneach. Tha mi ag ionnsachadh Gàidhlig cuideachd ach chan eil mi fileanta fhthast. Do you know any resources for learning Scots? I'm interested in learning it as well but couldn't find any decent sources.

It's a language and Burns Night isny a national holiday.

[@CarlsLingoKingdom]

My apologies. When I said national holiday, I meant it in the general sense, not the technical sense. It is celebrated across the nation but (unfortunately) no one gets off work.
