Scots Language

Scots Language is a Germanic language variety spoken primarily in Scotland. It has its roots in Old English and has evolved over centuries, incorporating influences from Norse, Gaelic, and French. Scots includes various dialects, such as Doric and Lallans, each with unique vocabulary and pronunciation. Although it shares similarities with English, Scots is distinct enough to be considered a separate language by many linguists. It is used in literature, music, and everyday conversation, reflecting the cultural identity of Scottish communities. Its recognition and promotion have grown in recent years, highlighting its significance in Scotland's heritage.
