Used ti go to school wi a wee laddie who talked like that - realise now he musta been fae Aberdeen and here's me putting it down to the fact he was a spastic!!!!

when i went home in tears my mam used to say " getae fook ye greetin faced bassa " , which i,m pretty sure is scottish for "don,t worry son mummy loves you "

My mother was scottish , and when I started school in Liverpool using words like , hoose , ben , ken ,trews , tatties etc etc made me really polular , kids loved to knock fk out of me .

 

if only they spoke the queens english.........save all this hassle......... :whistling:

I could be wrong but I think the appropriate answer to that in Scottish is:

 

"Awa an tak ya face for a shite!"

 

:laugh:

 

Thats "Away and take your face for a shit!" if yer struggling L1......... :toast:

good thread this lol

 

right scots can you translate some of the lyrics in the loch lomand song for me???

 

By yon bonnie banks an' by yon bonnie braes....... :blink: By those/ yonder beutiful river banks and hills

 

'Twas there that we perted in yon shady glen.......... :blink: That was where we parted in that shaded glen (valley)

 

Whaur in (soft) purple hue, the hielan hills we view
An' the moon comin' oot in the gloamin'.............. :blink: Where in a purple hue (mist?) the highland hills we view, And the moon shining through the dusk

 

The wee birdies sing an' the wild flouers spring The small birds sing
An' in sunshine the waters are sleeping And in Sunshine the waters are sleeping
But the broken heart, it kens nae second spring again But the broken heart knows no second spring again
Tho' the waeful may cease frae their greetin'.............. :blink: Although, the woefull may stop their crying

 

i love that song but be better if i understood it............ :whistling:

 

i always remeber watching rab c nesbitt as a kid and having to put page 888 on teletext.......... :D
