@barrach7 Actually, Im a linguist, and I would say (based on rules of mutual ineligibility) that Glasgow does have its own language, complete with unique semantic, syntactic, and phonological rules.
After all: "A language is merely a dialect with its own army and navy"....
There's no such thing as a 'Scottish' accent. One can forgive the ingirlish or anyone from outside not knowing this...but for apparent 'Scots' to know it is pathetic! There's NOT a Scottish language...Doric and Scots are basic dialects. Nothing more, nothing less. Scottish Gaelic, on the other hand IS a language. Saying Glasgow has it's own language is like saying that (eg) Newcastle has it's own language! Eh?! And accents vary hugely in different areas of Scotland.
I'm Scottish. Half my family lives in America, half in Scotland. At family reunions, I end up translating back and forth between the Americans and the Scots. It's so hilarious. They're all a bunch of podgers!!
