Schotland
Language
Historically, Scottish people have spoken many different
languages and dialects. The Pictish language, Norse,
Norman-French and Brythonic languages have been spoken
by descendants of Scottish people. However, none of these
are in use today. The remaining three major languages of the
Scottish people are English, Lowland Scots (various
dialects) and Gaelic. Of these three, English is the most
common form as a first language.
People
The Scottish people (Scottish Gaelic: Albannaich (plural))
are a nation l "_note-3"[6] and an ethnic group
indigenous to Scotland. As an ethnic group, they are a
composition of groups such as the Picts, Gaels, Brythons,
Angles, and Norse.
In modern use, "Scottish people" or "Scots" refers to anyone
born or living in Scotland. In a wider sense, it can also apply
to people who are descended from the ethnic Scots and who
identify as Scottish.
