We need to leave or the langauge will die. No one cares about Gaelic. Literally have 0 Gaelic ancestors and Gaelic has never been a langauge used where I live. We should do that. I think he lives in Prussia currently.
Luke Gonzalez
is Scotland as grim looking as England?
anyway, to me this is kind of a fanciful way of writing, like a creative poet inventing sounds that ryhme amidst english akin to lewis carrol
Isaiah Torres
Yes?
Leo Cox
in Bavaria, his heir is niece who is married to the son of prince of Liechtenstein
Aiden Anderson
Probably because Scotland keeps older vocabulary while English doesn't.
Aiden Peterson
Highland Scot? I was in Scotland a few years ago and looked into it while I was there, but there was more nuance than I was really prepared for. From what I remember, Gaelic was more of a lowland/Caledonia thing
Carter Phillips
fuck off ngungo
Jordan Rivera
looks like a trick to make scotts appear more distinct from english than it is
>Literally have 0 Gaelic ancestors and Gaelic has never been a langauge used where I live. Yes it was. Unlike if you're from Shetland or Orkney of course. Or the Borders/Lothians. Everything else (including Glasgow, Edinburough) used to be Gaelic at som point.
I don't actually think you should learn Gaelic though. Just stop attention whoring.
It's literally the other way around you stupid fuck.

>Gaelic was Lowland thing Other way round. Although it was spoken in parts of it for few hundred years. Scots has been spoken there longer, except from Galloway. > (OP) >looks like a trick to make scotts appear more distinct from english than it is No. I sourced this from a book that saved all of Scotland's writings.
I understand that. Gaelic is cooler in some ways although this has much more books.

Did Scotland have a similar story to Wales of their natvie languages being banned from schools and generally being looked down on by institutions?
Elijah Fisher
Those areas were never fully Gaelic. Everything north of the firth was for maybe 200 or so years but stopped being Gaelic in the 12th century in places on the east coast.
Jack Fisher
the majority of Scotland is anti EU
Cooper Reed
It was worse than wales (or not?). Scots basically completely disappears from literature after James VI/I and only appears in random bursts. You can read loads of stories about this how like "they speak one language and read another" and stories about parents hitting children so hard their teeth come out their mouth.
Grayson Collins
Isn't this just a phonetic spelling of English spoken in Scotland? Why is it comsidered a different language?
Anthony Brown
>Those areas were never fully Gaelic. Now you're moving the goalposts though. Before you said it hadn't been spoken and now it was spoken but "only" for 200 years.
And they weren't speaking Old English prior to Gaelic, they spoke Pictish. Which was Celtic, so related to Gaelic. Not that there's anything wrong with the fact that they changed language. Just be aware that it went in this order Pictish > Gaelic > Old English
Robert Garcia
Because it is a different language and has a separate tradition from English and completely different phonetics with different grammar.
Lucas Thompson
>Y tho Sorry, Yas Forums makes me rude and to be fair your post was pretty dumb. Or in your own words "I should've known".
Evan Rivera
Gaelic was spoken there but it wasn't the majority. And Pictish isn't a language.
Carson Long
>And Pictish isn't a language. What were they speaking then??? It certainly was not Old English.
Henry Martinez
They spoke Welsh. How could it be Old English (although a minority might have due to the clergy being made from Northumbrians in pictland)?
