[00:00:33]This is my friend Alina. I've just been helping her learn some English. Some people say that my English isn't very good because I've got a Scottish accent.

[00:00:41]What do you think, Alina?

[00:00:42]>> I think that's your English is brilliant.

[00:00:45]>> Thank Thank you very much. But what I've decided to get one back and all the people that say I've got bad English, I'm going to teach you some real Scottish words and phrases. Are you ready for this?

[00:00:56]>> I think so.

[00:01:20]>> Do you want to go one day?

[00:01:22]>> Sure.

[00:01:22]>> Well, if you go and you don't know any of these Scottish words, then you're going to have problems. People bully you.

[00:01:28]>> Really?

[00:01:29]>> Yeah. Yeah. So, the first one, we're going to start nice and simple. Is the word for yes.

[00:01:34]>> Any idea what the word for yes could be in Scotland?

[00:01:36]>> Yes.

[00:01:38]>> Yes.

[00:01:39]>> No.

[00:01:40]>> I.

[00:01:41]>> I.

[00:01:41]>> I. Like this. Like your eyeball.

[00:02:14]>> No.

[00:02:14]>> No.

[00:02:15]>> Like how a be, you know, it sounds a bit like the word when a beaver like bites on wood to no on wood.

[00:02:21]>> N a W. No.

[00:02:23]>> No. So somebody says >> no. It's like but >> but it's no in Russian.

[00:02:56]>> No.

[00:02:56]>> There you go. Easy. Right. Let's Let's move it up a little bit. We have a word in Scottish for small.

[00:03:06]>> Malen.

[00:03:07]>> Malen.

[00:03:10]>> We.

[00:03:11]>> We e.

[00:03:12]>> We.

[00:03:13]>> We.

[00:03:14]>> Okay.

[00:03:14]>> Like imagine you saw a really small dog and father.

[00:03:18]>> Exactly.

[00:03:19]>> I'm very smart.

[00:03:21]>> But I noticed. [laughter] So imagine you saw a really small dog in Scotland and you you pointed at it. What would you say?

[00:03:27]>> We wouldn't just say the word we. You would say there is a >> a we >> a we dog.

[00:03:34]>> A we dog.

[00:03:36]>> You need to put it as you need to put it before the noun >> like we [laughter] brother. We dog.

[00:03:41]>> A we dog. Or do you want we cat?

[00:03:44]>> Do you want a we whiskey? We whiskey.

[00:03:46]Oh, we whiskey.

[00:03:47]>> A little whiskey. Yes.

[00:03:56]>> I know. A we >> Yes.

[00:03:59]>> Whiskey.

[00:04:00]>> A we whiskey. Yes. Right. So, let's move on. So, it's very important that you're able to because the Scottish people insult each other quite a lot. So, I'm going to give you some words. Not really bad words. Nothing that's going to get you in trouble. First one for a silly or clueless person. Any idea what the word could be?

[00:04:22]>> Numpty.

[00:04:24]>> Numpty.

[00:04:25]>> Numpty.

[00:04:26]>> You say, "Oh, that guy's an absolute numpty."

[00:04:28]>> Numpty >> means he's a silly person.

[00:04:30]>> That's empty. But numpty.

[00:04:32]>> Yes. A bit like empty, but with a n >> What would What would the [clears throat] Russian equivalent of that be? Not like a really bad word. Don't get me in trouble. But like someone who's a bit silly.

[00:07:28]>> Did I get it? There you go. Y >> It actually sounds a little bit like one of the words that I'm going to teach you, but we'll come back to that. Hey, give me one more. Maybe a little phrase or something interesting I could learn.

[00:07:38]>> Phase phrase.

[00:07:42]>> Well, we can go with posit is for >> Thursday. Sorry, Thursday is Yeah, it's Thursday, right? So something about Thursday.

[00:07:57]>> After a little rain on Thursday.

[00:07:59]>> After a little rain on Thursday.

[00:08:02]>> So what is the meaning of it? M. It's like it's never going to happen.

[00:08:08]>> It's never going to happen. Okay. So, >> break it down for me a bit slower.

[00:08:15]After rain in Thursday or until Thursday on Tuesday >> thank you. No, I think the people have switched off by now if I keep trying.

[00:08:55]But I'm going to practice in my own time.

[00:08:58]>> Right.

[00:08:59]>> Here's one for you.

[00:09:02]Someone that looks a little bit, if people could say me, a little bit pale.

[00:09:06]>> Pale, >> you know, like white skin.

[00:09:08]>> No.

[00:09:08]>> But like maybe, you know, like when Scottish people go on holiday to Spain, guys anyway, like you take your top off, you've got like swimming shorts on, but we're all like very like very white.

[00:09:21]>> We're not like Italians. We're not very tanned. We're not bronze. Mhm.

[00:09:25]>> So we call that peely wallally.

[00:09:28]>> Peely wallally.

[00:09:29]>> Peely wallally.

[00:09:31]>> Peely wallally.

[00:09:32]>> You like you're looking a bit peely. But also it means when you know when you get a little bit sick but you've maybe got the flu or the cold and you're like >> oh pewy wallally.

[00:09:41]>> You're like what?

[00:09:42]>> Uh you look >> you look a bit pewy. Or you can even say I'm feeling a bit peely. But it also translates into like >> if you see a picture of your friend on holiday and he's just >> I'm definitely going to use this.

[00:09:55]>> I mean basically can be I'm being ginger I'm constantly look pually. So >> okay >> here's one. It's quite niche.

[00:10:04]>> You know what niche means? It's very small amount of time that you would actually say it to someone.

[00:10:10]>> Mhm.

[00:10:10]>> You ever been walking behind someone and like they've got trousers on but they're just a little bit too short? And I don't mean for fashion because I know that can be fashionable sometimes. You know, like a guy's wearing a suit and he's but he's his trousers just a little bit too. You know this?

[00:10:25]>> No.

[00:10:25]>> Do you have a phrase in Russian for it?

[00:10:27]We've got our own phrase for it.

[00:10:29]>> Say it.

[00:10:29]>> We say that guy's cats are dead.

[00:10:32]>> That guy's cats are dead.

[00:10:34]>> Cats.

[00:10:35]>> Cats. Koska.

[00:10:36]>> Cats.

[00:10:37]>> You know koska.

[00:10:38]>> Cats are deed means dead.

[00:10:41]>> Adid.

[00:10:42]>> Cats. A deed is the whole world or it's >> is I don't know if this happens in Russia. You know when someone really important dies they fly the flag halfway up. Does this happen?

[00:10:52]>> Let's say say the queen died >> the >> Buckingham Palace in England.

[00:10:57]>> Yeah.

[00:10:58]>> You know when they normally put the flag all the way up to the top they only put it up halfway. We call it like half masked. And I think it's something to do with that. It's like I could be wrong.

[00:11:08]Help me out in the comments Scottish people. But basically, it's like saying, "Oh, his cat died, so his trousers are like at half M." You don't understand.

[00:11:17]You You doesn't understand what I'm trying to say. I can't believe I'm trying to explain your cats are dead to Russian.

[00:11:24]>> You can You can explain me in Russian.

[00:11:45]Um um how do you say [clears throat] flag?

[00:11:57]>> Flag.

[00:11:58]>> Just a way >> flag.

[00:12:00]>> Um flag.

[00:12:02]>> Mhm.

[00:12:11]So, I think it's derived from saying that guy's trousers are too short. Maybe his cat died. That's why he's flying his trousers at half. I don't really know. It's just what we say.

[00:12:26][laughter] >> It's really weird.

[00:12:30]>> This is Scottish. Can somebody from Scotland please um describe in the comments what it means when you say that guy's cats are dead when his trousers are too short? I've never had to actually explain it but we all just know >> understand >> cats >> that guys >> guys >> cats >> cats >> are >> are >> did >> did >> smash them. Well done. All right. I think I just fried Alina's brains. try to teach your your cat in Scottish. So, could you tell me tell me a couple of um tell me a couple of Russian things and finish to finish us off.

[00:13:11]>> Something that >> say >> very good.

[00:13:18]>> What's it mean?

[00:13:20]>> It's like good luck.

[00:13:21]>> Good luck.

[00:13:25]and no feathers, no fluff.

[00:13:30]>> No feathers, no fluff, >> but it means good luck.

[00:14:06]>> What does that mean? To not listen.

[00:14:10]>> To be gullible. To believe something too easily.

[00:14:13]>> Ah, to be gullible.
