| Publisher Description: Every year over 15 million tourists visit Scotland to sample its renowned hospitality, breathtaking scenery, a game played with a ball and club called golf, a monster often spotted in a lake, and more importantly, the whisky. But, if there's one thing that leaves visitors utterly scoobied, it's what the Scots have done to a language they were led to believe was English. Say It Like A True Scotsman is a different kind of phrase book. While most phrase books focus on identifying common situations and objects one is likely to encounter as a tourist, this book focuses on the exquisite vocabulary and pronunciation that make up the Scots language. Here you'll find a collection of Scottish sayings and proverbs along with their English translation and interpretation. |
