    thanks

  • I never said that a a form of Anglian (which developed into Scots) was not spoken or does not have an important role to play in the history of this nation. However, I could provide a mountain of evidence supporting the claim that the Gaelic language has the strongest claim to the title of the "Scottish language". Without Scottish(Gaelic) there would be no SCOTLAND.Read "The Identity of the Scottish Nation:An Historic Quest" by 'William Ferguson'. It is a seminal book on this vast subject.

  • Wrong, Up until the 1700's there was no one language of Scotland, In the Lowlands they used Scot's in the highlands they used Gaidhlig,and in small regions at times they used both.

  • An old song from just after the American Civil War sung in the south and written by a bitter soldier from the war goes to the same tune as this song. I think it's called "I'm a good old rebel" but I'm not sure. The Scottish and Irish heritage of the American South is clearly seen in this.

  • A language and people which came from Ireland. Ignorance?

  • my previous comment was directed at andy7666

  • Again, total ignorance. This is Scottish Gaelic (Gaidhlig). The oldest living language in Scotland. The original language of the Scottish people. Fact.

  • It's Scottish gaaidhlig, but yeah it's a great song

  • Nearly 3000 viewings faither...one for the next album...
