5.0 out of 5 stars Easy and Concise- English to Scots, Aug 29 2009

By K. Cummings "book billie" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Concise English-Scots Dictionary (Paperback)

I find this dictionary an excellent tool for finding words and phrases in the scottish language. Although I am Canadian born, my ancesters were Scottish and I have a tremendous pull toward the Scottish heritage and language. This book gives me everyday words and phrases and is an excellent reference tool as well. I think the title of the book gave me a good idea of what was going to be in the book so I was not dissappointed when I recieved it that it was not what I was looking for. I was very pleased that Amazon had this book as it has not been easy finding books on the Scottish language. This book gives the meaning and proper pronounciation of words and also how to use the words. It is an interesting and educational book. I learn words and phrases and pass them on to my children so that we can continue to keep our scottish heritage alive. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who wanted to know more about the scottish language.
