text: what are the scottish words for grandma and grandpa?   when you say "scottish", do you mean scots or scottish gaelic?  they're two completely different languages you know.  scots, the original language of lowland scotland, is related to but not the same as old english.   it's descended from the dialect of the jute tribesmen who were cousins of the angles and the saxons.  all three groups invaded britain at roughly the same time in the fifth century.
