This is useful vocabulary for understanding the TV series "Outlander"!

Scots is a language and recognised as such on the Scottish census. Yes many scots speak english , over a million and a half speak scots. They are distinct languages with a common ancestor , in much the same way nordic languages have a common ancestor in old Norse and therefore have mutual intelligibility.

Years ago I went to Scotland and it turned out to be one of the best experiences I've ever had. We were lucky with the weather and with all the people we met along the way. I specially remember the day we went to Stirling. At the end of the day we dropped in a pub and the locals gave us a very warm welcome and created a friendly ambience so we stayed for a long while drinking and chatting with them. Needless to say that we spaniards with our BBC english barely understood what they said. I even asked if they spoke Gaelic ! Fortunately a kind man patiently "translated" for us what the attendees were telling and we all had a very funny and interesting evening. I strongly recommend to visit Scotland, moreover it is a very nice country. Best regards for all the scots out there.

Scottish sounds a lot more like a germanic language than English does. Reminds me of Dutch for some words.
-
I enjoyed the lesson. The most difficult aspect of learning Scottish pronunciation from Spanish is the vowel sounds and diphthongs. As for the consonants, they even roll their R's.
-
It seems that Scotts can easily learn Dutch.
-
Besom is very similar to Bezem in Dutch which has the exact same meaning. And, Haud Yer (wheest) looks like Houd Je (mond) in Dutch as well.

thank you i shared it with my scottish friend and she laughed

It's more of a tapped /r/ in most words which you said quite well when you said "drinking".

As a Brazilian (portuguese speaker) ,I understood the meaning of "Och aye"...so I can head to Aberdeen now...

i like the vid, however i wanted to interject that the scots tap their r's more than roll them. the ch sound could use a little work, but otherwise i like how informative the vid is
