Airt: ulster origin but living in Friesland

I am of Ulster origin, but living in Friesland in the Netherlands. 
It is fascinating to see the relationship betweenScots and 
Frisian, so many common words and structures.
Frisian was once almost a dead language, only spoken by 
peasants and of very low social status. This has changed and 
there is no reason why Scots should not be the legal and 
official language in Scotland. One thing is important though, 
there must be a standard, which does not mean that dialects 
should be discriminated against and secondly it must be a 
relevant language. If Scots remains a nicetey of Scottish 
folkore then it will not work. As I said, it must be relevant at 
work and at home, in public and in private. Then it will survive 
and be a living language again. I wish this will happen.
