I don't speak Scots. But I know that "an aa/aw" comes after the list of alternatives, not before. And that it's not "pheesicist", "seestem" or "photoseenthesis".
I'm editing here, fixing those incidences, because I'm concerned about the image of Scots, especially now that the Scots Wikipedia, which has the potential to be a great Scots resource, is flooded with Scotched English. SCOTS IS NOT SCOTTISH ENGLISH, OR ENGLISH WRITTEN WITH A SCOTTISH ACCENT!
Ongoing tasks[eedit | eedit soorce]
- tagging articles with "Fix Scots" and "stub" where necessary
- "an aa kent as X, Y" --> "forby kent as X, Y", "kent as X, Y an aa" or "cried X, Y an aa"
- Done, now doing the above with "an aw" - but even this is on a bit of a hiatus
- pheesics, pheesical, pheesicist --> physics, physical, physicist (on a hiatus)
- Adding text from en.wiki to one-sentence articles about animals, changing some words to Scots (but hopefully not in the haphazard way many Scotchers are doing) hopefully providing a template for translation by Scots speakers
