A fascinating guide to some unique Scots words - a vital companion for anyone interested in Scottish culture or Scotland's people and language. Rather than a dictionary, this is a light-hearted, essay-style look at some personal favourite Scots words. It is written by one of Scotland's leading lexicographers, Betty Kirkpatrick, who has also edited Roget's Thesaurus, the Oxford Paperback Thesaurus and Chambers' Twentieth Century Dictionary. The various articles include the modern meaning of a particular Scots word and often some historical ones. They frequently include example phrases or sentences showing the word in use - as well as guides to pronunciation. The book offers a taste of Scots which is very likely to whet your appetite for more.
