Scots Language – Gifting Every Child

Malcolm Wilson Published March 16, 2016

Traditional Arts and Culture Scotland (TRACS) aims to promote the traditional arts of storytelling, music, song, and dance. It recently launched the Gifting Every Child initiative, which provides an introduction to these areas. There are a wealth of resources available, and it’s worth taking some time to look through these.

Some stories are written in both Scots and English, which allows for comparisons between the languages and analysis of writing styles. Also of interest may be the Scots songs, which could be used to aid listening skills.

Aside from the Gifting Every Child initiative, TRACS has further information on Scots, including a history of its development.
