Scots language is an actual thing - not just an accent.
This is, of course, the serious answer. Scottish people often type in Scots.
This seems like reasonable advice to me.
But they’d say “dinnae” not “donnae”
I could go a donner now…
Waily Waily Waily! We’ve got Nac Mac Feegles! :eek:
Quick, Tuba, cross your arms, tap your foot, and purse your lips at him. It’s the only way to be certain.
Ye daftie bigjobs!
Gungan now?
To be fair, I think she meant uploading to The Dope, which most newbies try to do and get confused about not being able to.
Nae king! Nae quin! Nae laird! Nae gungans!!!
State ay him, man.
Yeah. And a “Sixth Form College” in Rutherglen?
I don’t know what most of those words mean (What is “Sixth Form”). Care to explain your meaning?
Already snarkedby some pretty witty lady in the pit.
Rutherglen is a town in Scotland. Sixth form colleges are an English thing. If someone in Scotland did go to a different college after their secondary school, they would never use the word “form”.
OK. Rutherglen is a town on the outskirts of the city of Glasgow, Scotland - in effect it’s a suburb or whatever.
“Sixth Form” refers to the last couple of years of high school for those in England (not Scotland) when kids are perhaps 17 or 18 and about to head to college or university. In some parts of England, kids might go from high school to “Sixth Form College” where they’ll complete their studies in a more “college like” environment than a typical high school.
But in Scotland we do not have “Sixth Form” and so we don’t have “Sixth Form Colleges”. There are equivalents, but they’re not called the same thing.
Yes! I have only seen this thread now, but I do wonder about “Sixth From College”. Of course, things change and all that, but it still sounds a bit unlikely. As do phrases such as “if people donnae feel”.
I have never heard of “donnae”.
Oh how embarrassing. I usually DO read to the end of a thread before jumping in, but sadly not in this case. Oh well. So I end up merely repeating what others have said. I will change my name to “Echo” and hide my head in shame.:smack:
I’m with Cinnamon Imp - I thought it was a reference to a kebab.
The OP has been banned as a trolly troll. Anyone want to talk baseball? How about that homerun derby?
What we really need to talk is Scots. Anyone want to start an ask the Scotsperson thread? Some of these references are a bit baffling for us amused Americans.
I was telling my fiancee the other day about how I saw Sammy Sosa hit a ball in the 2000 HRD that I don’t think has landed yet.
