Scottish Words

It's not just the accent that's different, the whole language is not the same. In fact, there are several different ways of speaking in Scotland, from the Borders in the south to the northernmost Orkney and Shetland Isles. This book looks at them all, although it will focus on Scots - the traditional language of the majority of Scottish people.
