Scottish Accent

Here's a brief synopsis of the various dialects found in Scotland. My friend narrating this has lived in the Highlands of Northern Scotland his entire life. Music is "Briefcase No. 1" by Tartanic.

A good video! But why no mention of Highland English and Hebridean English? Seeing as the video is entitled "Scottish Accents" and not the "Scots language"

Sometimes it sounds like English spoken by Poles or Russians, generally people from eastern Europe. I do know what I'm talking about - I'm Pole ;)

The r's are pronounced so clear in the Scottish accents. It almost makes me think that this variety of English is the kind that ought to be taught to second language learners, rather than the "English English" variant.
