Airt: Looking for someone to help me learn Scots.

I live in Seattle, Washington, USA and I am hoping that 
someone will take me under their wing to teach me how to 
speak Scots. I would love to receive an email from anyone 
who'd be willing to correspond about this. I hope to hear from 
someone soon.

Thanks!

This is really fascinating. I was listening to a Belle and 
Sebastian record the other day, and my father asked if they 
were Norwegian because they sounded a little like Norwegians 
who were really good on English. I remembered vaguely that 
one of me old english teachers had given some examples on 
similarities between Scots and Norwegia, I think she said that 
you said 'braw', which I found very smusing at the time.
So... I searced and found.
gryce  = gris (N)
braw = bra (N)
bairn  = barn (N)
steid = sted (N)

I have had some wonderful hours reading through almost 
everything on the page. I cannot remember any of the 
grammar (and do not dare to test out the grammar here), but it 
was fun anyway. And you really say 'braw'! Very fascinating.
