RE: Abraham Lincoln and Robert Burns by Alec Ross
The Scottish accent varies from region to region. I recall a friend from Glasgow being very contemptuous of people from Edinburgh and copying their accent by using a very exact and 'English-like' style "Ech-chually, Aye coom frum Head-ing brough".
Glasgow accent (very rough and indistinct to most of us) is as different from Dundee's (very precise and clear) as London's is to a Liverpool accent. “The honest man, tho' e'er sae poor, Is king o' men for a' that” Robert Burns |
