You'll always discover interesting stuff in a library that the 'Internet' has decided that you're not interested in and will not bother to show you. Visit your local library reference section and consult their dictionaries. I made it for entertainment and it is a poor source for a reliable reference. The table of words is not available to print. If you click on the in context links they will take you to the word used in context in an illustration. You can search for words in Scots here and listen to them - they are embedded in songs and reminiscences from real people, 36,000 audio recordings. Phonetics are limited, there is no substitute for listening to a language. You also have the option of choosing words that only begin with a certain letter.

Phonetic help.Ī pronunciation for some of the Scottish words are shown in phonetic symbols.
