we don't get taught Scots in school; we only get taught English |
| F833 |
Yeah. |
| F835 |
//Or Shakespeare.// |

//Exactly.// |
| F835 |
any-, we're all gonna change our a-, eh, accents suddenly and start speakin all this Scottish dictionary words
//[laugh] whatever that// |
| F832 |
//[laugh]// |

| F834 |
ye know like when we've got, we've got mobile phones an we can text an
//all that// |

| F835 |
//Yeah.// |
| F834 |
nowaday-, like, we don't say "Scottish", we just say, "Sco'ish" |
| F835 |
//Sco'ish, it's not// |

lazy pronunciation. It's not like the words that we
//use at all.// |
| F834 |
//No//
an an it's I don't know. |
| F835 |
But it must be, obviously can't be as popular if we don't even know half the words that the Scots
//use, I mean// |
| F834 |
//No, I think.// |
| F835 |
I've lived in
//Scotland all my life and I don't speak Scottish at all.// |
| F834 |
//We should still be speakin Scottish cause we are Scottish.// |
| F832 |
I don't particularly like Scottish accents [laugh]. |

//Do you not?// |
| F833 |
//I know, they annoy me.// |

//[laugh]// |
| F833 |
so and she was like, "Auch-, Auchenblae", I was like, no she tried to put a big thingy on it, she was like, "Auchenblae", you're just like, "Auchenblae"
[laugh] an, an she was like, "ch"
//[laugh]// |
| F835 |
//[laugh]// |
| F832 |
//Yeah, she was like, "Auchenblae" [laugh]// |
| F834 |
//[laugh]// |
| F835 |
But I don't, I s-, I really think that there's not that many people that speak Scots anymore,
//there's just not, I mean the older// |
| F832 |
//No, there's not.// |
| F833 |
//No.// |
| F835 |
generation, yeah
//but when we get// |
| F833 |
//Yeah.// |
| F835 |
see when we have kids and the next generation
//it, Scots is just totally gonna die// |
| F832 |
//It's just gonna die out completely// |
| F835 |
out because nobody speaks it
//is it, I mean it's only, it's, it's country bumpkins that// |
| F832 |
//It's cause we don't get taught it in schools.// |
| F835 |
speak
//Scots, you don't hear Aberdonians.// |
| F833 |
//Yeah.//
//[laugh]// |
| F835 |
//goin, "Ocha locha [inaudible]" [laugh]// |

| F834 |
//[laugh]// |
| F835 |
//ye know, ye hear them goin [inaudible] I know// |
| F832 |
//It's like Gaelic apparently, it's like Gae-, Gaelic// |
| F833 |
//[inaudible]// |

eh language is
//dyin out as well// |
| F834 |
//Is really fadin, yeah.// |
| F835 |
//Gae- [inaudible]// |
| F833 |
//Yeah, but//
I just think there's so many
//people// |
| F832 |
//I think we should get taught//
Gaelic instead of
//French.// |
| F833 |
//Yeah.//
//No.// |
| F835 |
//No.// |
| F834 |
//Or, no I think we//
should get taught something decent like Spanish cause nearly everywhere you go is Spa-, people
//speak Spanish.// |
| F835 |
//But then again I went on//
//the French exchange and it was really good.// |
| F832 |
//Cause you get a choice of speaking more than one language.// |
| F833 |
//I loved the//
French exchange. |
| F835 |
It was really good, yeah me and [CENSORED: forename] went on the French exchange,

//It was good.// |
| F833 |
except my, my French person was a bit of a man, but
//you know.// |
| F835 |
//My one//
my, my [laugh] Mrs [CENSORED: surname] was on the French exchange and she came up to me and goes, "I hear you've picked up a lad", and I goes
//"Excuse me, that's my// |
| F833 |
//Oh yeah!//
//[laugh]// |
| F835 |
//French exchange partner", and she was a girl [laugh].//
It was such a shame but she was really lovely but she looked a bit feminine [inaudible] |

//Very nice man ehm [laugh]//
//Well// |
| F834 |
//Used to live in England.//
//[inaudible]// |
| F835 |
//well, ehm he ehm//
said that you know like to name drugs and everybody named illegal drugs, nobody named
//like// |
| F833 |
//Yeah.//
//Paracetamol or caffeine.// |
| F835 |
//paracetamol or caffeine//
and it was it just an when he turned round and said that, you know that, "You just named illegal drugs", I thought it was quite a slap in the face, I was like,
//"Really?"// |
| F833 |
//I know.// |
| F835 |
cause it was
//it showed you that us// |
| F832 |
//But that's what you think of//
you do-, I know this sounds stupid but paracetamol's a drug and caffeine's a
//drug but you just don't think of it like that cause it's like medication isn't it// |
| F833 |
//Yeah, but you're just like, cause it's so, it's so integrated,//
it's so integrated
//in everyday life.// |
| F835 |
//Well caffeine's not//
//a medication,// |
| F832 |
//No, but like//
//[laugh] but paracetamol// |
| F835 |
//[laugh] using that as a medication would be funny, it's so// |
| F833 |
//It's so//
It's so integrated in everyday life you just don't think about it,
//you don't think twice like.// |
| F832 |

| F835 |
But I mean and then he was like, you know like you're sayin that north east Scotland's like the highest drug use and everythin, it's only like eleven percent or somethin
//isn't it?// |
| F832 |
//I know, yeah//
but that's what he was pointin out to us tha- that it wasn't as bad as it was
//made out to be.// |
| F835 |
//I know so why is it//
made out to be this big? I mean they should instead of like
//criticisin// |
| F832 |
//I know.// |
| F835 |
eleven percent o Scotland they should be
//praisin// |
| F833 |
//What about// |
| F835 |
//the eighty-nine percent or whatever it is// |
| F832 |

//positives.// |
| F835 |
//I know//
yeah. |
| F833 |
//I just don't think, I just don't think that's fair.// |
| F834 |
