These words aren’t Scottish English these words are Scots words. Scots is a language recognised as a regional or minority language of Europe, and a vulnerable language by UNESCO and also the UK government. It’s great to be represented but It’s a sister language to English. They both came from a sister language but it’s like Portuguese and Spanish. Similar but different.

@Lightfoot Pathfinder Firstly, respect for the name haha. But I think it is the reverse of that, because the English culture and identity is THE British identity to people from other countries and cultures. We don't see Wales or NI here, and when you have the Union Jack displayed, it is synonymous with the English culture and not the others. I think you could have a point when it comes to recognition of what is purely English, but to the outside world, British IS English.

So sad to see the Scots language being touted as simple English 'slang'. It's a language in its own right and one that has a long history of being oppressed. Scots is now a marginal language in danger of being lost, so giving it some proper visibility is actually really important. I'd love to see more videos including a Scottish person, but would ask you to please make sure it's someone who understands the difference between Scots, Scottish English, and Scottish Gaelic and is able to communicate these differences.

Scots vocabulary was labelled as slang and denigrated in the past, with children being punished for speaking their own language. This went on into the 20th century, and still kind of is, although not officially anymore. Officially Scots is actually recognized now. Notable that this is similar to what colonizers have done to indigenous populations all over, although in Canada we had more mass graves for ours. Actually our French too, their were laws passed against French schools in western provinces (which had significant populations of French and Metis). As a result many French-Canadians outside of Quebec are anglophones, and it is a part of current domestic conflict.

A lot of this is NOT Scottish English, it's Scots, a separate language that is recognized by the EU and the UK. Previously it was denigrated as simply slang and children were punished for speaking it instead of the "King's English", not too different from how various governments have treated indigenous peoples around the world, although not as bad considering the mass graves that some residential schools have and stuff. Anyways, as a result the language is often not even recognized as one by native speakers, because they have been told it's not, it gets a bit political with people promoting the Scots leid being accused of trying to push some separatist agenda.

3:50 What's wrong with the word "sandwich"? 1) It's named after an Earl of Sandwich, who had his castle on the wrong side of the border. Had he had the taste to live in Erskine castle and give the double bread and butter with a filling the name "an Erskine" instead, it might have stuck. 2) In France, "sandwich" is very ambiguous. A kebab is a "sandwich". A hamburger is a "sandwich" ... Scotland being with France in the Auld Alliance obviously can't ignore this! 3) Everyone doesn't have to call it "sandwich" all over the world! Some call them "canapé" which means sofa.

Scots (which is it's own language, related to English) does have a lot of relations with Northern English dialects. Partially because they are physically close, but also similar influences, mostly related to trading and with the Germanic tribes that colonized the areas in the migration period. North was mostly Angles, south had more Saxons, which is where Essex, Wessex, and Sussex get their names from (East, West, and South Saxons). Also Jutes (Yoots) in Kent.

I am Scottish and I noticed in America they can recognise Scotland and our specific cultural identity such as Highland Bagpipes, Kilts, Highland dancers and even cows, whiskey ECT. ...but they struggle to recognise English culture. They think everything that represents British culture is the same thing as the English culture, examples of British culture is Scones and jam (Scones were invented in Scotland so not English but have become a symbol for Britishness), the Queen (represents the UK and Commonwealth not England), Tea drinking which is common throughout the UK and Ireland, the BBC which is supposed to represent the UK not England ect...you get my point. But Americans know nothing about Morris Dancers, Cadbury's Chocolate, Cheddar Cheese, Cricket, Football, Black Pool illuminations, the English Pub, Cornish Pasties, Cornish Language, Lancaster Hotpots, Soap operas such as EastEnders or even the St George's flag or st George's Day. England NEED their own identity! We should not be scared of the St Georges flag or the English Identify, everyone deserves a national Identity. Respect English people individual Identity and learn the Difference between something that is British and something that is English. You are very good at doing this with the Scots, why can't you do the same for the English.

Just happened on this but I feel it needs to be called out. A defining feature of Colonialism is for the Colonist to try to eradicate the culture and language of the Colonised. It is done by various means; by force using the Legal System to proscribe use of a language; by less obvious methods like denigration and mockery. This is what happened and is still happening to the Scottish languages. Gaelic was proscribed in the 18th Century and is only now slowly making a comeback; the various dialects of Scots were regarded as inferior, described as "slang" and strongly discouraged. As children, we were sternly telt aff (told off) if we didn't speak "proper English". In some schools, pupils were violently assaulted if they were heard speaking their own language. So, it is disappointing, though not entirely surprising, to see some of these Colonial attitudes on display in the film and in some of the comments, particularly as the participants are so young. It starts with the display of the Union Flag, rather than the flag of a country like the other three flags. The Union Flag is symbolic of Imperialism and is unpopular with at least half of the people in Scotland. "British", like "European" or "North American" may be an identity but it is not a nationality. So the symbol should have been the red cross on a white background. Then there was the go-to assumption that the word would be "slang", with the implication that it wasn't a "proper" word or used only by an inferior type of person. There was the question, "What's wrong with"sandwich"?". In other words, "Why don't you use our word instead of one of your own words?" I could go on. Finally, there was the balance of power in the format of the video. It came across as though 1 person (Vanille) was having to justify the existence of Scottish words and phrases in the face of laughter and incredulity from the others on the panel. She did extremely well to maintain her dignity in the face some of the remarks made. The balance of power should have been the other way round, with the minority person expecting the others to try to learn about their language with an appropriate attitude. I.E. that the language is not some quaint variation of their own one. Rather, it is a perfectly legitimate language that has been in use and evolved over centuries.

No because in Scotland we say Shsssssh and followed it with a finger over the lips. Wheest is followed by your mum making a mouth closing gesture with one hand. I think it's supposed to represent the sound of the mouth suddenly closing in mid sentence.

England is not just part of a political union (the United Kingdom); they are a separate nation themselves, with thousands of years of history, heritage and culture of their own.

It’s hard to see only one person representing the USA or Canada. West coast people tend to speak differently than those on the east coast. Midwest and Southern states have phrases that are often colorful or unique (knee high to a grasshopper). Canadians on the East Coast have a much stronger French influence than the west coast. I wouldn’t mind a video showing these various differences. Then perhaps add Briton, Ireland,Scotland, Australia and South Africa to the mix. Compare generations. I know the slang of my youth is totally different from current day slang. Heck look at the last 100 years. Fantastic went from meaning imaginary (A unicorn is a fantastic beast) to being great. Jazz was something vulgar, usually meaning copulation. Now it’s thought of in musical term. Anyone remember the 80’s trend of using BAD for anything good? What about the use of hands while speaking? I know waving goodbye is like flipping the bird in some middle eastern countries. If memory serves, the American Sign Language letter T is something considered vulgar in the British Sign Language. Then there is the stereotypes like Italians using big arm movements while speaking. This channel has a lot to explore.
