GUEST,semiotic Folklore: Is Scots a Language or a Dialect? (129* d) RE: BS: Is Scots a Language or a Dialect? 09 Aug 10

If my memory serves, Meic Stephens has quite a section on Scots in "Linguistic Minorities in Western Europe" but you might have quite a search for a copy. His argument was on the lines of English being of Saxon derivation and Scots from the Anglian or Frisian language; or was it the other way round?
