    specifically
    Scottish is an
    adjective meaning "of Scotland". The modern usage in Scotland is Scottish or Scots, and the word "Scottish" is only applied to specific products, mostly food or drink, such as Scottish whisky, Scottish pie, Scottish broth, and Scottish eggs. "Scottish" applied to people is widely considered pejorative in Scotland, reflecting old Anglo-Scottish antagonisms, but it is still occasionally used in England and Ireland, though the usage is considered old-fashioned.[1]

  2. The last time I posted this after one of your tantrums you didn't answer and disappeared for a week - so have it again... :):upyeah:



    'Scots', 'Scottish', and 'Scottish'
    What's the difference between these words?

    Perhaps you have been invited to a Burns Supper, the ceremonial gathering in honor of the poet Robert Burns, which typically takes place on January 25th and involves the intentional consumption of both whiskey and haggis. In preparation, you have turned to the dictionary to help you with a tricky question: What is the difference between Scots, Scottish, and Scottish?

    It’s a bit complicated. Sorry.



    [​IMG]


    Each one of these words may be defined (as an adjective) as “of or relating to Scotland or its people,” and each one may also be defined (as a noun) as “the Scots language.” However, some uses are more common than others.

  3. Of Robbie Burns
    Burns wrote of himself in 1787, "The appellation of a Scottish Bard, is by far my highest pride; to continue to deserve it is my most exalted ambition."

    the geeza was more Scottish than 749er who lives in London, If Robbie Burns says Scottish is okay, that's fine with me. :D
