I know Irish ppl or Welsh ppl will feel easy to learn Scottish.

How important Scottish is!
"I know Irish ppl or Welsh ppl will feel easy to learn Scottish"
-- No. You do not know.
Scottish Gaelic is a Celtic language, akin to Irish Gaelic and more remotely to Welsh.
"Scottish" is a dialect of English.

As PARISIEN pointed out, "Scottish" is a rather ambiguous term.
What do you mean by "Scottish"?

Tis a shame that the Scottish don't seem that interested in keeping their celtic heritage alive as the Welsh are.

Perhaps 'tis due to the fact that the Scottish are part English...yeah?

dear Leasnam,
WRONG!
Scotland is Scotland and England is england, and they are part of United Kingdom, they are british!
The welsh are the welsh but tey are also British
Scotland has its own history. The scots are made of Picts and Scnadinavian blood (norway essentially) with a lot of irish blood (essentially for Glasgow and its area).
We have our own money printed from the bank of scotland. We had our own kings, history, laws, school system (more efficient than the english one)
Most of the english ppl will tell you they are english, they will tell you they are british.
Most of the scots will they you they are scottish.
How dare you think they are the same people!?
Some scottish people still speak gaelic (in the north and in some islands).
We have our frontiers (historical and legal), our own architecture.
SCOTLAND THE BRAVE!

Have you ever seen that in England? no. Because this aws unallowed!
O my land of Scotland won't never be under the english monarchy.
Dying instead of being a slave!
O my land of scotland won't never see the english bells!
Dying insted of praying their miserable god!
O my land of scotland, you are rainy, not sunny.
Dying instead of being under the dark reign of an english king!
Along the hills and the mountains, i can hear singing the clans!
Crying the wives who lost their husband, no more kilt in the house.
Children asking for their father, killed by the english dogs
Scots ladies raped by the enmy to mix their blood to our.
After many centuries of humiliation, the scots never forgot and won't never forget who the enemies are.
Now the time has come to change the rules. Time to unify the clans!
Larn an Due!

Dear Laphroaig Liam,
Please forgive me for confering upon you the semblance of normal intelligence, and allow me to rephrase my statements so that you be able to understand better...
The Scottish are in part "Anglic" (i.e. early English as opposed to the English of today, which you so vehemently like to distance yourselves from), especially in the south of Scotland. There, does that work better for your impetuous hot-blooded enthusiasm (guess you get that from the Norwegians eh ? ;)
Spare me the whole 'English' vs 'British' thing for God's sake man--we know already. It's common knowledge. Therefore, when it appears that we are making this blunder, please look a little closer. You might be surprised to discover there are others who are in the know.

English are 2/3rd's Celtic so I guess that would follow.

I once heard the Scottish could once choose the 'Dutch' side in the past. But they chose for the English.. The (Scottish) guy gave me some Scottish words, which were about the same in Dutch..
Whether that is true or not, I once spoke to an other Scottish guy through MSN with my microphone, and said some specific Dutch words, which don't exist in English. He could understand some of them, and said his grandmother says some words even the way I said it.
Unfortunately I can't find the youtube pm the first guy once sent to me.

Scottish is, or was, a language.
The only sister language English ever had.
And yes, it sounds quite similar to Dutch. A little bit harsh...
What survives of it? 'Bonnie', 'lassie', 'the Kirk'?

With 'Dutch side' I mean the political side. 16th or 17th century or so..
