Whenever he showed a tendency to go in for 'lang-nebbit' words, the young Albert Mackie was roundly rebuked by his plain-speaking grandfather, 'Speak Scotch or whistle!' It was advice he took to heart, and which helped give him an enormous affection and respect for the rich and vital way the Scots, from the Borders from Shetlands, express themselves. This hilarious and informative book explores such interesting topics as 'hornie golachs', 'hogboons', 'the molliegrumphs' and 'girniegowbies'; the Aberdonian fondness for the letter 'f' as in 'Fa fuppit the fyte fulpie', and the brand-new theory that Shakespeare himself 'spoke Scotch and whistled' with the best of them. In his previous book, Taking Glasgow, Albert Mackie was the perfect guide to the linguistic marvels of 'No Mean City': established fans and new readers alike with delight in this wider survey of Scotch as she is spoke.
