I intentionally search for videos of Scottish people talking, since it is very pleasing to hear the accents for me as a foreigner.
I also adore the sound of nails on a chalkboard.
@@artistsanomalous7369 is that what you sound like. Who do you mean.
same
“We’re alright” This is the correct self assessment. For all peoples.
Love Scottish people, they're so welcoming, authentic, witty, friendly and down to earth ❤🏴
Just got back from Scotland. Solo trip. Incredibly friendly, surprisingly initially shy and extremely helpful. Went to some “sketch” places and never felt a bit of a dangerous presence. Magical magical place
Ooh as a Scottish person I’m curious as to where you went thats considered ‘sketch’
@@e.d3121me too …🏴😎
@@e.d3121sketchiest place in Edinburgh is the Parliament Building 😂
Friendly, frank, and funny. A “wee drink” is never wee.
Just like a comment here, I too found myself attracted to Scotland when I saw Brave back in 2014 on DirecTV and well since last year this Mexican got himself to learn Scottish Gaelic on Duolingo, let's just say....its kicking my ass left and right. 😅 I hope to vist Scotland especially the Highlands and meet the people & learn the history, culture, and folklore of Scotland
Good for you! This Scots speaker and Gaelic learner is being trained in all things Mexican. Yee haw from Texas!
I’m trying to relearn Spanish(only did some in high school). Gaelic is notoriously hard to learn so well done trying! Good luck. I’m a Weegie and that can be like a different language too🤣
Duo too
Since the movie Brave, I've always considered scottish people to be marvelous, mythical, otherworldly creatures with beautiful outstanding accents. Not to mention the highlands & the dazzling stories of old behind the magical things in them.
Thanks! You are always welcomed to visit scotland to see the beauty with your own eyes
@@realfanstv2275 No wonder your national animal is the unicorn🤣 I'll definitely be visiting Scotland; wish to be making more scottish friends as well.. just to know more about that lovely enchanting culture.. or "bonnie" as a Scot would say it xD
Welp enjoy the whiskey 🥃
We were once a proud brave nation.Now we are just a bunch of cry babies blaming all of our faults on England
@@kevinwoods4724 "Nicola Sturgeon adviser blames 'ENGLISH PEOPLE' for Scotland's rise in coronavirus cases." XD yeah but that doesn't lessen your awesomeness & the beauty of your ancient culture
If that is the case, Filipinos and Scotsmen have many things in common. Maybe we can become good friends .
🤣
Filipinos and also similar to vietnamese people
I love Scotland and its people🏴♥️
I think we are the best and friendly.Scotland is such a wonderful and beautiful place.Nought wrong with the weather,four seasons,nice mild summer,wonderful spring,into a cooling autumn then the best season if winter leading up to Christmas.Goid rainfall which keeps everything green and alive.SCOTLAND FOREVER ,be proud of our lovely country.👍👍👍
If you don't like the weather, wait five minutes... 😣👍👍
Up for a good laugh and a good drink. Got it! The guy at 3:17 really had me thinking, nice explanation.
1:07 he should have carried on the full Trainspotting quote “Some people hate the English, I don’t, they’re just wankers. We on the other hand are colonised by wankers, couldn’t even find a decent enough conuntry to be colonised by.” 🤣
Great pfp
I did my Ancestry DNA test and it turns out I am 19% Scottish and seeing these people now it makes sense, especially getting a good laugh and friendly outlook.
I am north indian kashmiri hindu( pandit) i have a full of fair light/white skin and when i check my genetics test then i found i have 18% scottish blood even i also wonder that how european genes comes into my body,dispite having indian parents( who are also fair and light skin) Even we didn't mixed with british during british empire in india ,or mixed with other
@@a.b7797great great great great grandma might have some explaining to do with great great great great grandad about it
I work in a shop in Tenerife and I get a lot of Scottish customers. I love them. They are funny, polite and really kind. Just lovely ☺️😆❤
God bless Scotland, from England with love!!!
And God bless England. Love from Scotland!
Im also from scotland and i love english people but i dont like boris Johnson
@@njkpower8351 Real people don't like Politicians, they're all scum.
I'm from Scotland, I love England but I have to admit I absolutely loathe London and its ego!
@@jonathanlandau-litewski7405 I think a great majority of England agrees with you 😂
Down to earth that's how we are so jolly as can be .Thank you.
I always find Scottish people to so down to earth, funny, laid back people.
I worked in South Africa in the 70s and one of my close friends was guy John Lenny other scots we new all bonded especially when Rod Stuarts we are sailing played reminds all of us of home
I remember back in the 70s and 80s when Scotland was full of Scottish people.
Most folk in this video were Scottish - maybe one or two wernae. Edinburgh these days is full of English people. In fact the English are the biggest immigrant group in Scotland - about 10% of the population are English immgrants.
lmao
Scottish bands,like the bay city rollers with Eric Faulkner.
0:30 that guy has a extremely square head.
It's hip to be square!
Willine
Yea

Scotts are salt of the earth. Be proud of your roots.
My left ear enjoyed this immensely
l'm English and dam l'm warming to these people l suppose l have been guilty of stereotyping all Scots as Braveheart English haters maybe l need to not be so sweeping.
An awful lot of Scots are sweeping with opinions particularly of our English friends, I worked a lot of years in England, Ireland and Wales and for me the majority of English people are much friendlier than our other UK friends in Ireland and Wales. Too many form opinions of others by listening to friends without having travelled our Great Britain
Just because we want independence from a union dominated by England, it doesn't mean we hate English people, or love Braveheart. I can't stand Gibson, and the movie was 'meh' for me. Great soundtrack though.
I love Scotland and its people 🏴
Scotland 🏴
Scottish people are beautiful , hard working,I love the accent, the women are very beautiful ❤️❤️
Which film did you see?
omg that first guy had me nearly pissing my pants!
😂😂😂
Hi there! 'Scotland' is just a heaven on the Earth.That's because,this country is besotted with picturesque beauty of nature.A perfect example of development going side by side conservation of nature.There are many beautiful countries in the world like Switzerland,France and Finland.List is incomplete without Scotland.Scottish people are like assets in any country they live from UK,Europe to US& Canada to Australia and New Zealand.Also other parts of the world.Last but not the least,Scottish lasses are the most beautiful. I love you,Scotland❤❤
I grew up and still live in a small town in Scotland which has history and great views surrounding me all the time so I often feel like I’m almost blind to the beauty of it all, so I find it really nice when people from other countries appreciate and admire it :).
I totally agree,friendly.
Nice video
What was that in the end? 😂😂😂 A fly 😂😂😂 Enjoyed the video. Everyone had their own thoughts.
Yes, it was a wasp😂
@spaceLem oh good that I didn't sting her.
As an American, I immediately felt at home in Scotland. They are all storytellers and the most charitable people that I have ever met.
If i went to Scotland I would hug everyone in existence
At the moment I don't think that's the best idea to be honest.
@@realfanstv2275 lmao yeh
Just ken that we don't hug a lot.
I’m half English half Scottish but when it’s safe to hug in Scotland I will give you loads of hugs for free and I will be your guide 🥰🏴🏴🏴❤️❤️❤️
@@englishgoddess8238 Name change please 🙂👍 … you know what I mean 😳👉🏴
0:33 I've been to that exact place so many times 0:54 inverlieth Park or the meadows
Wee guy at 55 seconds got it spot on 😄
The lad in the adidas top is actually very eloquent and makes a good point about social gatherings. Can't always judge by appearances. Lots would think he's just a wee ned if they walked past him in the street but he's definitely got his head screwed on.
Just amazing and lovely ppl . Any Scottish ever what to come to Pakistan on vacation you guys will have a free stay at my place . As much as you guys wana stay no charge .
The reason to visit would be just listening to them talk, what a great accent 🤣🩵
I love Scottish people and Irish people. I need to come and visit. ❤
Spent one year in Glasgow. They DO love their drink and laugh. Welcoming. When the old ladies call u "hen", or "wee lassie", its so endearing. Accent is still hard to get though.
I love the accent so much!!!
Nice video stay bless
One of a kind no one like us ever but we dont take anybodys crap
What a load of crap
Keep up the good work 😍😋❤😘
Scottish people are led by their hearts, rather than their minds.
Apparently you've never heard of the Scottish Enlightenment or the outsized role of Scots in science and technology. Modern democracy and education have both been heavily influenced by the Scots. Many of the American Founding Fathers received their educations from Scottish teachers or Presbyterian academies, so their ideas about government and the role of citizens in government were directly influenced by Scottish thinking. Plus, for being from such a small country the Scots have invented or been involved in developing a crazy amount of technology and scientific ideas/theories.
@@soccerchamp0511 You've endorsed my comment perfectly, thank you :)
In what way?
@@DavidMccue-ib8wq In that we tend to act emotively over logically.
i like our weather .foyr seasons in one day .doesnt bore you.Will admit 5 day of heat we are crawling on pavement.but we are a happy welcoming nation .A lot of english pals love it here
Sounds like my weather in TN.
I might will visit Scotland somewhere this year or next year and stay for quite a while, tbh i just curious of how or were they welcome outsider basically,... And yeah for the last maybe the accent, cuz u'know as it famous in the internet, but it seems like quite easy to understand well indeed there's some unfimiliar phrases, but mmm, fair enough....
i would love to go to scotland my ancestors came from there
Worldwide… Scottish accent/slang is one of the cutest/funniest/charming.
We can laugh at ourselves. We make people welcome.
Haha, we're a fun bunch :)...what was the man in the background doing at around the 25second mark ?
He was preaching the gospel 😅
@@goodthinkingtv Haha I thought so 😂
@@Drew_Eden 😂
I do believe Scottish people are absolutely funny, the guy in the background at 1:42 just demonstrated it without saying a thing.
I tried doing this without subtitles. Could not keep up lol
1:00 "the salt of the earth". Aye! wi' yer porridge!
They are nice people mostly very traditional people i can say
Jacket looks so good on you
'...no great, but we're alright.'
Didn't expect the first reply to be that scottish
I'm born an American but I'm part Scottish too and I feel like I'm at home when I see Scotland recognizing their Heritage, Country, and Language. Love from the U.S. I love Scotland! 🏴
First reply had it for me. And I'm Scottish.

People dont go to pubs like they used to , so many have closed down.
What a beautiful accent
I think everyone has personalities not everyone is the same
Ma'am you were quite unfair not to let the fly join the interview... Everybody has something to opine....😂😂 Jokes apart, this was an entertaining interview, and I appreciate the sense of humour of the Scots. Kudos 👍👍👌
Yes, they were really funny😂 I'm glad you enjoyed it
@@goodthinkingtv After reading another comment, I found that I had mistaken the wasp for a fly 😂 sorry🙏
The rule that always works in all relationships throughout the ages. In this short video we consider a story that happened in a very interesting time - in times of the Virgin Queen Elizabeth I, whose exceptional reign has been called The Golden Age of England: kzhead.info/sun/ict9XdNufn-sbGg/bejne.html
The best one was 0:55 😂🤣
🌅
Scottish people on coffee shop The guy : this is wrong 🤣
Happy people good for nature
Look we Scot’s are like a lot of people of the world….let’s party,laugh and have a good time! Time,life…is sort enjoy your life is briefing…party! Cheers !! 🏴👏🙏🍻❤️👍😉
good video why the sub titles ?
In case people don't understand Scottish.
Accents
The lad at 2;07 & 3;17 is fit as Fk
great
That guy definitely lived in South Africa. He was probably disappointed when he found out apartheid ended
We’re non confrontational the hell how long you lived here mate
Just love Scots pple,better than us French😉
The 4th guys only saying that because its Edinburgh. If it was Glasgow people wouldn't let things slide like that, people do fuck all to help someone in trouble in Edinburgh
I dunno I just had some random Scot yell at me for no reason on the street haha, I’ve been here for one day
We true Scots are patriotic,amongst the best fighting soldiers in the world,friendly,trustworthy,and will make you a friend for life,amongst all we believe in the United Kingdom.

@@a.b7797 One of your female ancestors spent the night with a haggis salesman
@@a.b7797 wow that is so interesting... historically the Scots have certainly travelled wide for such a small country, its nice to think perhaps there is a little Scottish in everyone! 😂
So you are patriotic but you are happy to see us governed by another country!! At least 50% of us do not believe in the UK.
That's a lie. Most Scots voted to leave the union in 2014. Those born in Scotland voted to leave, but the vote was won for the union by those living in Scotland, but born elsewhere in the union. Don't take me at my word, easy to find on google. And even now the polls are split 50/50, and higher among Scots themselves. Two out of every three people in Scotland under the age of 35 support independence. Half of all those under 55 do. And fewer than 20% of us identify as British in any way. Two thirds identify as Scottish-only.
"We're all right; noh great, but we're a'right." Most Scottish answer ever. lol This American loves the Scots.
Do you know what a I hate, when that person is rude and impatient regarding queues in shops. Most people are fine ahah and honestly everyone is fun and good. I work at Hermiston Gait
Forever Scotland ❤ love Scotland ❤
I think Scottish people and culture has been shaped largely by the shite weather, history and work. The weather means we have to be hardy but, like the weather, also makes people a bit dour and miserable for (at least) half the year. Scotland´s history, and especially having an arrogant superpower on our doorstep, meant we had to be tough just to survive as a nation for over a thousand years. And the kind of working class jobs that existed - coal, steel, ship building, farming harsh land - also created a camaraderie and a solidarity among people that makes Scotland far more receptive to egalitarianism and socialist ideals than our southern neighbours for example. Community spirit has always been strong as you will see when Scotland finally breaks free from the UK. And a combination of all these factors leads Scots to enjoy every opportunity to drink and party whenever possible.
You don't have a chip on your shoulder bill, no there is no shoulder left, all gone. Have you ever been to places like Bolton, Newcastle, Bradford or even Birmingham or Bristol? They all speak differently to Scots but think the same way as you and most Scots. Once Covid is gone or you've had the vacc get out of Scotland and witness for yourself. Indy = Skint like Croatia, Moldova etc
Agreed with all this.
I love Scotland 🏴 from an Englishman 🇬🇧🏴🏴🇬🇧
1:07 ... We're the lowest of the low
Hard to have a better reputation than the Scotts
No the best but we are awrite belter 🤦♀️😂😂😂
The best

Talking tae that lassie like she's fae Mars.
0:44 speak for yersel wee man
'Drink'
Were hardy and a sense of humour we have to ,nicola as first minister
Best leader we ever had.
A young man wearing adidas doesn't seem to be a Scottish, had a weird non-scottish accent... but very nice young man😊
The way they describe Scottish people almost sounds like their describing geordies from Newcastle
Anybody there got any tattoos lol. I'm a six foot three man. With long hair and beard. Covered in tattoos. Including my neck. Wonder if I would stand out lol.
I wanna go 😫
Yes the best people ever i know ❤ my second home always love for Scotland
“Damn Scots…..they ruined Scotland!”
Do one about what English think about the Scotish
I like the jocks ,in jock land
Oh mate I'd love to watch that
Nobody likes a little Englander in Englander land though ;)
not a lot since cant even spell scottish
Whats the point. Wankers on here will change the word English to British. People do it on KZhead in general
Fucking Edinburgh may as well be English people think of Scottish people.
