Scottish, needs translating
I’m Scottish and I don’t type in Scots dialect but I absolutely love when other Scottish people do because when I read it, it’s spelled exactly how we pronounce words and it’s just so funny to me 🤣
For anyone who doesn’t understand (it took me a while) the person talking is Scottish and is typing in their Scottish accent, and another person replied with a picture of Merida (who has a Scottish accent) who nobody understood in this scene, like how nobody understands what Meg Corrigan is saying
Why can I hear this
I hate that I can read this due to the insane amount of British and Scottish YouTubers I watch
“Being a lesbian is piss. I tell a girl she’s good looking and in return I get ‘coming from you’ like no, I’m not saying that to be your friend, I’m saying that to have sex with you.”
Source: am scottish.
To avoid this I walked up to a girl and said “hey I came over here to hit on you” she laughed and it worked out
I felt like I was having a stroke trying to read that.
It took me a moment to understand it, but afterwards I could only hear it in a scottish accent.
Am I really the only one who got the gist of it without issue? It’s just slightly different English
I definitely hear this in Merida’s voice and yes, she’s definitely a dyke, and I’m here for it.
I’ve watched enough Limmy and Burniston to read this without taking a beat
Can we get a shout-out?
If you read it in a Scottish voice it makes more sense
Further evidence that Scots is, in fact, it’s own language.
Why do ppl from GB use x instead of a full stop (period > .)?
No idea why but the Scottish accent is so hot.
Wait… what?
Perfection. This is art.
Istg scottish should be considered a separate language from english
Whale oil beef hooked
I don’t know why, but for some reason picturing Scottish lesbians just makes me think of Jojo characters going to fight. XD Just an overwhelming aura of “Oh! Ya come up tah me tah git fuk’d up, ya wee slag?” “Well, I canne shag yus if I’m down glenn now, can ey?” and then it’s just aggressive diving for Nessie if you catch my drift (nothing long necked is gonna be found, but you’ll be mighty wet from the loch!)
It just bemuses me. :3
I can’t even read Scottish accents
icl ts pmo
I can understand everything in this image neat 🙂
Ya just gotta think about a Scottish person saying it with less harsh accent and you can kinda translate it
I understood the word lesbo and that’s it.
I feel proud to have understood that despite not being scottish
What id do for a Scottish girlfriend (lesbian) 🙏
If you read it in a Scottish accent, it’s completely understandable
no clue what that even says
This tweet was better than Brave
this reminds me of how often that Scottish twitter sub used to get on the front page and people would get mad if you asked what they were saying lol
Guys just go listen to someone with a Scottish accent for 30 seconds on YT. Then come back and read this post in the same accent they have. AND BOOM you can read it and possibly understand it!
These memes are really helping me do a pretty solid scottish accent
