As an American, the 'ae' replacing 'n't' and 'o' at the end of words is quite my favorite Scottish-ism, specifically in the context of Twitter when folks write/spell in this way. Not sure why, but it allows me to hear the words in accent in my head as I read them. All other English language texts are read in my own boring inner monologue voice. God bless you Scottish Twitter. And Scots in general.

@Roguephilsopher 6 жыл бұрын

It seems slightly easier to learn Scottish language verbally than its written because it makes your head turn lol. But, I always wanted to go to Scotland to see what everything is because its really underrated wonderful place.
