Say it in Scots: Wha's Like Us?
Dr Chris Robinson
Say It in Scots is a series of pocket books designed to inform and entertain the reader about the wonderful, rich
and varied language of Scots.
The people of Scotland have a reputation for being many things – honest, dour, courageous, argumentative and
sometimes even mean. Very often, these characteristics are opposite sides of the same coin. Whether the
Scots character is influenced by the beauty and hardship of the countryside, work, culture, folklore or the many
incomers who have found a welcome over the centuries, one major influence on the way Scots see themselves
is their language. How we describe ourselves is part of who we are.
