Louise,
I was going to write that but i am far to polite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :lol:
I love that word, i use it all the time and you can say it with such meaning.
when my eldest was 2 she picked up on this word and would say it if she dropped something, so we had to stop it for a while :lol:

My favourite word is "Pillock." I use it a lot especially when I'm in the car, it's very satisfying :)

I also use the word "rollocks" a nautical term I think, no doubt any sailors out there will correct me if I'm wrong.

Haven't posted for a while but have been popping in to read the odd posts now and again.

Lesley.
Live long and Prosper.

There are words that are used in Scottish English that are not common elsewhere.

"Outwith" is one.

Scottish people also have lots of words to describe rain. I think "smir" is one of the most descriptive for that light kind of rain that does not seem to know if it wants to fall or go back up!

My favourite onomatopoeic word is either "sizzle" or "ripple".
