MODERATORS
What I meant is that you replied directly to the meme but the meme is specifically about someone speaking English with a Scottish accent so saying "Scots is a different language" doesn't make much sense in this context.
If you had said "Some people don't realize it but there's a language specific to Scotland that isn't English with a Scottish accent" then that would have made more sense.
Honestly though, the difference between an accent/dialect and a language is both vague and artifical. Norwegian dialects has 12 different variations for the word I (E/Eg/Ej/Æ/Æg/I/Jei/Je, and appearently 3 more), yet it's still the same language
Too much troll shagging has fucked them up.
