Scottish Scots
An fowk on the Scots Language Forum pit it, “Aince again, the BBC approaches language on the ae intellectual level as a tourist dish-cloot”.
Or a part of a greater English whole where Scottish words pepper the local variety thereof. Ay, the grammar, synax an eediom that the wirds is stappit intae is a kenspeckle bittie o whit maks a language. Houaniver, whan thae aspects o Scots is seen tae be muckle the same as English aw that bides is wirds.
It seems awmaist constitutionally incapable o thinkin aboot Scots in onie ither wey nor “Whit’s yer favourite wee wurdie, then, Scotties?” There’s naething wrang wi haein a leuk at individual interestin wurds. The problem is whan that becomes the sole or dominant wey o thinkin aboot a language.
