The Anglo-Saxon language of Scotland. Native to the Lothians and Borders ( and historically all of Northumbria in England ) it spread over centuries and displaced Gaelic - the native Scottish language - from most of the Lowlands. Most famous examples of the language are probably found in the poetry of Robert Burns. There has been much debate, which is ongoing, over whether or not Lowland Scots is a language in its own right or a dialect of English.
Scots, wha hae wi' Wallace bled,
Scots, wham Bruce has aften led,
Welcome to your gory bed
Or to victorie!

1. The Scottish people - being either those belonging to the nation of Scotland or those who speak the Scottish language (Gaidhlig).
2. The Anglo-Saxon language of lowland Scotland. Derived from Old English and formerly referred to as 'Inglis/Ynglis' by its speakers until they usurped the title of 'Scottish' from the native, Gaelic speaking, Scots around the 15th century.

History: My mother was a conservative. She believes the extra "t" was a waste of letters. Of course, it back-fired. Because more ink and paper has been wasted correcting the misspellings than by taking away my "t".
