Exactly. My family background is Scottish so I've known it all my life but I didn't think they were that obscure....I thought everyone knew it! I also thought you had to be smart to get a job on TV +D

Erin Gabrielle Willis I know most of them because some of my family have married Scots or those of Scottish heritage including mums cousin in law and have some Scots Irish in me so know it from that context by the way lass is also used in Ireland .

Dude, you'd at least learn "lass" from Brave. This is sad

Blckgalmagic If a culture is centred within itself no knowledge from without will be understood .

wouldnt even need to watch the show, ive only just started, my Grandmother was Polish and she could have worked that one out lol

I knowwwwwww 🤪🤪

Jamie is good looking and has a beautiful, kind and loving soul. Every woman deserves a Jamie.

Me too . :D I was melting while listening

Thank you for your comment. I really appreciate the love and support you have shown me. I would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you ❤️

Geordie? Irish? You can't say Glaswegian is sexy, it's harsh and brutish.

@@nigelsheppard625 People find that attractive because it's strong and masculine, a proper Glaswegian dialect like you'd hear on the Jeely piece song is stellar.

@@nigelsheppard625 say that to a glaswegians face and you will soon find out what is harsh and brutish,

@@boredweegie553 I was mad till I read your reply! Haha I love it so true

The answer to your question is....NO!! There's nothing sexier than a Scot!!

It's not "Outlander" It's normal English with Scot slang. For the hosts to not know what the word " Bonny" means shows they have a VERY limited vocabulary. Aside from the few Gaelic words from the teasers leading up to the first season of the show, as well as the shots of Adhamh O'Broin nothing here is " teaching" anything.

I wanted to tell the chick to SHUT UP

exactly my very first feeling - so (excuse me) stupid - bonnie lass (I hope I typed this right ;) is clear even to me that it is a beautiful girl/woman and I am German. Very bad interviewing...very awesome and kind actors

I agree. Also though, you may want to consider that he’s probably getting compensated for promoting the show.

maryanne eggers “bonnie”, apologies for the correction.

But a fat nerdy character in outlander

Stanley13 really ? That’s how you’re going to describe roger Mackenzie gees jealous much ?

@@michelleflood8220 You don't think his character is chubby wimpy nerdy ugly in outlander? I always thought him dating the girl was unrealistic... wonder if he is like this in the book... and this was just terrible casting?

Stanley13 completely disagree but to me Richard is wonderful as roger and Sophie is great too as Brianna if it’s unrealistic to you then that is your problem .

If you didn't already, watch him in Crimson Field. He is amazing there.

Natalieba well said my second cousins do have some Scottish ancestry on their dads side ( our dads are cousins ) my great aunt married an australian born scot Macleod being the surname and that family are originally from Inverness and grennock .

temarytemary there’s plenty of the regions of the British isles that say lass

@@philipmarlowe4682. Scotland is not a region. SAOR ALBA GU BRATH.

temarytemary Irish do use the word lass and NI people will use Bonnie because they use the Scots dialect

I say lad and lass but never bonnie

Irish people use some of these terms. Lass in some areas but also cuddies and cubs.

Hhahahahahah lmao😂

They both have a crush on the Scot.

fixed the tittle. my mistake.

And although the dictionary definition states outlander/ English ..the usage is the derogatory equivalent of calling a black person the N word.

Same in Irish but it’s spelled Sasanach and eachtrannach is spelled the same way

@@tweetiepie551I don't think the word sassanach is as bad as the n word lmao

Those hosts are NOT representative of, I'd say a good majority, of Americans. I understood him quite clearly as well, and was actually embarrassed that the female host was so obviously disingenuous. It was definitely cringeworthy!!

@@Marzeonthego That's reassuring. Thanks for letting me know :)

I understood Dougal perfectly 😍. 🇦🇺

I am American and know most of these. It kinda helps when you have a family heavily steeped in Irish/Scot heritage. Ireland is my heart's home with Scotland being a close second.

I don't know, I be from Norwich, over in the East of England and often get told I don't speak English and once put up the true dialect stuff and got told that was foreign and not in any way, english

YOOO

They both have the "valley girl" accent, which is grating for sure

Agreed and not culturally aware

Kind of, it's Scottish Gaelic for English like Albannach means Scottish. Doesn't mean Outlander though , or lowlanders 😅

Thank you for your comment. I really appreciate the love and support you have shown me. I would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you ❤️

thought so to. it's more dialect and scottish words

fixed the tittle. my mistake.

Scots is a language, with 3 main dialects, namely Lallans, Ullans and Doric. The EU agrees, the Scottish and UK government's agree and they heve less proximity to English than Norwegian has to a Danish. Gaidhlig should be used more in this video though and in Outlander in general, way too much "do ye Ken?"

Ian MacVicar Scots and Scottish English are two different things ... Scots is a language in its own right, whereas Scottish English is English spoken with a Scottish accent.

Lucas Duncan - it depends where you draw the timeline. Scots developed on its own path, separate from English or Scottish English. Scots comes from Northumbrian dialect of Middle English in approximately 7th Century CE, which developed from the Germanic languages brought by the Angles, Jutes, and Saxons in the 4th Century. Paul Lang on “Lang in Focus (found in KZfaq) and Collins Gem “Scots Dictionary “(2000[1995]) explains the origins of Scots.

What a lovely Scottish name. I'll bet you're American!

Jock Mackay why thank you 😉 Although I didn’t pick it I have always liked my name 👍🏻 P.S I’m Australian 🇦🇺

I went to school with him. He was in my sister's class.

Padraig Quinn knew this just spelling is different just one example of a shared word btw there is also the welsh saesnag that means the same as well basically all translate to Saxon so really only applies to the English and not foreigner or lowland as graham said . Been learning both forms of Gaelic for a while around two years focusing on the Munster dialect of Irish as that’s what most of my Irish ancestors would be using if they were Gaelgoirs as they are from tiobraid Arran agus corcaigh . Not sure whether the word would be sassenach in the Ulster dialect as that’s the closest Irish dialect to the gaidhlig due to the Scots Irish influence on that province . I have Cavan ancestors as well .

Gaelic is ROUGH, especially when you're just starting out. I've been learning for about a year and I still get tripped up.

tweetie pie not usually but seeing that’s what Jamie loves about Claire is her Englishness he uses it in affection . There’s other endearments in gaidhlig that he does use but he always goes back to this one . Doesn’t have to always be derogatory you know lighten up !

A Mac no it doesn’t it literally means Saxon so no it doesn’t apply to anyone but the English sorry .

@@michelleflood8220 Thank you for clarifying that for me, it was the understanding that I had of the term. I will remove my comment.

Oh lighten up my goodness. Don't turn nothing into something

Some spoilers from season 1-3: Claire and Frank are on their second honeymoon a bit early because of the timing and end of second world war, but that is maybe one of the biggest mistakes. Other than that, lots of the events happend in real life, like the battles of the rising, Prestonpans, Culliden etc. Simon Fraser, Bonnie Prince, king og France, Louise and more of the minor characters did excist in real life and are somewhat correctly showed. A scottish man named Fraser also saved his life after Culloden by hiding away.

@@benedictewrstad8379 Thank you so much for the information. I absolutely love historical-based movies/books. Although many times writers will take liberties on the storylines to make a story "better", I really treasure more historically accurate character/event portrayals. Mel Gibson's Braveheart first opened the door for me to some Scottish history, but Outlander really flung open the door wide. Such rich history and cultural ancestries...that go back hundreds and hundreds of years. The US, although culturally diverse in peoples and histories, we are in comparison, still in our infancy. Most of all, I think there are many lessons we can take from them. Thank you again. ❤

Shannon E no problem 😊 I also love historical drama/movies/series and when they actually get things right in historical matters.

@@shannon3944 hate to disappoint you but Braveheart was not only rubbish, it was historically incorrect. Robert the Bruce never met William Wallace. Infact just as Robert the Bruce was being made king, Wallace was being executed. He was never betrayed by Robert the Bruce. William Wallace also never met Princess Isabella. That movie is cringeworthy at best and embarrassing for us Scots.

@@deathbycheese850 I absolutely understand that the events and/or timing, and characters, etc. are quite skewed in Braveheart. But, isn't the main theme throughout the movie, at least correct? Wallace was a real person, a Patriot, a badass, or maybe even a traitor, depending on the viewpoint? Clans were real. Nobles were real. Scots wanted and demanded, thus fought for their freedom from England? Longshanks was ruthless? Isabella was a real person, married to his son, the Prince? As wrong as some of the timing, etc., is the movie at least valuable in that, many had never even heard of William Wallace, for example? I know many folks don't, but the first thing I did was look him up, and Robert the Bruce, etc. Maybe you're right....maybe I look at it wrong.

@@jamesfletcher5906 NO Scots is what normal, modern Scots speak when they are at home. It is not some 'ancient' language.

You are the one having a laugh claiming that Scots speak no Scots. But go on claiming that if you like.

Same thing.

@@jrtomlin1805 is Scots not another term for Doric? Northern Scots language. I can't say I'm a fan but I do speak it, not at work or that unless I'm jesting but family both mine and my partner's speak it on the daily 💁

MC Square they are American it’s Scottish slang did you really expect them to know words they’ve never heard or used themselves that is being a bit rude isn’t it ?

That's not how you pronounce Gaelic, so the joke doesn't work. It's GAH-LIC.

I hate it when people mispronounce Gaelic. I cringe!

SomethingStupide that’s being very harsh we aren’t meant to understand it because the producers said we are meant like Claire to feel out of our depth when they are speaking . They are actors do they have to be perfect no . You’re just being rude for what reason ? Makes you feel important , that’s pathetic .

@@michelleflood8220 We are meant to feel out of our depth like Claire? I'd feel completely put of my depth with correct Gaelic as it is. You don't have to vandalise a beautiful and endangered language in order to confuse the odd 60,000 Gaelic speakers in the world, most of whom do not even watch the series because the Gaelic is so dreadful, as I said. I'm not being rude. I'm just stating facts and I'll gladly say it again: Outlander's Gaelic consultant is rubbish.

@@michelleflood8220 I would never relate to Claire haha she is English for a start 🤣🤣

SomethingStupide sorry but I don’t agree he is a Gaelic speaker for a start his whole family speak it on a daily basis so fact is he is one of those 60,000 Gaelic speakers you’re speaking about and for another 60,000 when it is a 5.5 million population you’re talking about ( Scottish statistics ) isn’t that much in fact more speakers of the Irish language of gaeilge than there of the gaidhlig in the world and that’s because a) it’s taught in schools across the country and b ) summer schools in it and full immersion schools in the gaeltachts of which there is at least six or more counties given there’s three distinct dialects of it can gaidhlig make these claims i don’t think so and does it really matter anyway if it gets people curious about the language to begin with ? Because as far as I can see bbc Alba isn’t doing much to promote it unlike RTE irelands national broadcaster do .

Kelsea Murray nor should you simply saying the reason there’s no subtitles is because we aren’t meant to understand dougal and the men who are speaking gaidhlig because we are meant to be in the dark as much as she is .

Yes, these two hosts represent all of America 🤣

Scots. Aka Scottish English. Good job correcting something that didn't need correcting, with wrong information. Double fail

Jock Mackay nope.. sorry, I actually studied it (and I live in Scotland). Scots is a West Germanic language variety spoken in Scotland and parts of Ulster in Ireland (where the local dialect is known as Ulster Scots). The Scots language developed during the Middle English period as a distinct entity. Not to be confused with Scottish English, a set of dialects of the English language spoken in Scotland. Scottish Standard English may be defined as "the characteristic speech of the professional class [in Scotland] and the accepted norm in schools". Although Scottish English may be influenced to varying degrees by Scots. Thank you for your mainsplaining 👍. Try to get it right next time

There is no language called "Scot". You are completely mistaken, and very confused. This video shows examples of "Scots" Which in modern society is known as Scottish English. Interesting that you immediately jump on the fact I'm a man. What a sexist idiot!

Jock Mackay I’m pointing out that you are mansplaining to me, someone who actually studied it, something you know nothing about. Scots is a language, recognised by UNESCO and recognised as a minority language in the United Kingdom (Scotland and Northern Ireland) and Republic of Ireland. It’s a language with 5 different dialects (Central, Southern Ulster, Northern and Insular). So instead of getting angry at me for pointing out a mistake, chill and learn something. No need to hate.

Jock Mackay by the way, what you are referring to as modern society “Scottish English” is actually Scottish Standard English or Standard Scottish English (SSE) and it’s a set of dialects and it’s different

@@adiabolicalliberty2614 hey, what dyou mean? You saying it doesn't mean English or are you just pointing out that it took the Saxon part? Add on: you know the word English comes from Anglo. Just pointing out the guy in the video is saying it means Outlander and said it would be used for lowlanders too which it wouldn't

@@adiabolicalliberty2614 thanks that's a lot of detail 😊 fascinating seeing where words and language grow from 🤓 though in gaidhlig when you say Sassanach you mean English like if I was to say "I am Scottish" it would be "tha mi Albannach" I know they would have spoke classical gaidhlig so wouldn't know if they would say it exactly the same way but would assume similar 🤷
