Mark and Roberta speaking Dundee Scots
This video was recorded in February 2023 at Dundee Central Library in collaboration with Mark Mulhern from the European Ethnological Research Centre of The University of Edinburgh.
Mark Thomson is a native of Dundee who has worked in factories, as a labourer in the building site and now as a postman. In his thirties he started developing his true passion: writing poems in his native Dundee dialect of Scots. He has published two books so far: Bard Fae Thi Buildin Site and Thi 20:09. In this video we can see him and his mother Roberta chatting about Dundee and their lives in their native Dundee speech.

Billy Kay speaking Scottish Standard English
Просмотров 952Год назад
Scottish Standard English is nowadays at one end of a linguistic continuum formed between that and Broad Scots. After the Ayrshire Scots recording with Billy Kay, I recorded a separate interview with him speaking in Scottish Standard English to make evident some of the differences between the two, and to get to know a bit more about them.

    As somebody who has lived in Ayrshire all his life, and was lucky enough to grow up knowing great grandparents and great great uncles etc, this is utter claptrap. Nobody spoke like Burns, or like Billy Kay is here. Some words were used, but nobody speaks strictly in Scots anymore and they haven't for decades.

    Not all romance languages are SVO. Romanian can be SOV and SVO, depending on personal preference and communicative mood. That's because Romanian still retains a partial case system from Latin, where word order isn't as important.

  • @fablb9006
    @fablb9006 Год назад

    I know many spanish catalan wont like this, but in a linguistic point of view, and historically Catalan is could be considered as a occitan dialect among others. There are less differences between catalan and occitan than between the various occitan dialects themselves, limousin, gascon, (provençal is as different to languedocian that catalan is). The main reason why catalan and occitan became seen as different language is political, because one is mostly french (half of France used to be occitan speaking) and the other is mostly located in Spain (wich exception of Roussillon).

    Max bro, get out of this mistake, friend, both English and Anglish are still tied to Norman and French grammatical norms. English has no cure and all Romanesque in fact. Anglish is still Romance because it follows the logic and grammar of pronunciation, writing, writing, monographs, articles, abbreviation, etc. and Norman pronunciation of Romance common English. Anglish is still Romance English, even though it has been reformed and purist, it is still bound by Norman rules. You don't need to believe me, take the 9 test, visit all the Norman castles in France in England and look for diaries of war, history and culture and language about the English language in the north of France in Normandy and in the south of England in Sussex, Wessex and Kent. Then you will come back to prove me right. The Normans founded the English language after the conquest. Another thing, stop calling the Anglo Saxon the old English, it's all stupid, this whole expression, the Anglo Saxon was created and made in Denmark and Germany and taken to England, in England it just developed. And another language that never had any relation to English created by the Normans in England and later taken to France. Brothers, stop being idiots and deceiving yourself and obeying the French as you do miserably to this day. Be ashamed of yourselves, get rid of your hypocrisy, remove both Anglish and English from Anglophony. Then of course you can speak the Germanic languages that Anglophones love to speak, Anglo Frisian, Frisian, Old Norse, Norn, Nynorn, Yola Dutch, Flemish, Saxon, Limburgish and be happy. Unfortunately, you speak a Creole language created by the French and linguistically you are Romance and a French linguistic colony, stop fooling yourselves. You should even unify all these languages mentioned by me into one and call it Saxony or Wessexnese and be happy in all Anglophony. Free yourselves from the Norman linguistic mistake, you speak Romance Creole, Hellenic Celtic mixed with Germanic words and nothing else... which mixed with different languages around the world and then generated other Creole languages around the world without the need for this whole global circus. Good luck folks, but actually Anglish and English are still French linguistic conventions that enslave you, free yourself from the two for real.

  • @thegrandlevel313
    @thegrandlevel313 Год назад

    I’m also a bit confused, if you go back far enough many of the Germanic words came from words that were of common etymology, or from their proto-indo-European ancestor.
