SCOTTISH DIALECTS
Standard English is an official language in Scotland. However, major areas in Scotland have their own distinct accents and dialect words. The Scottish words mostly being known to English speakers but sometimes the spelling of the words is not completely finished to be spoken. Those whose English is their second language might find it challenging to catch and understand the meaning. Thus, New Creation sees it as important to learn Scottish dialects especially in the daily conversation for those who just arrived in Scotland.
