    I’m from Glasgow and i remember it like this (not so long ago) pulled a lot down and built new housing estates, I grew up on a council estate where there wasn’t much, you had your fair share of mad bastards , bigotry (on both sides) alcohol, glue the lot...... All I can say is a lot of these folk were absolutely great people, we were born into this, and most people would help out anyone (I’m still friends with guys I grew up with) friends for life..... so many great people and memories, laughs and so much learned, Glasgow’s some place 👍

      I think it’s a language. English is full of words from other languages. Portuguese and Spanish are really similar. Going by your logic, you could say Portuguese is a dialect of Spanish... Scots has words from English, Scandinavia and Gaelic. Is it really just a dialect? I get the argument for it being a dialect but there’s a bit of a grey area here. No clear cut answer. Depends on one’s world view, perspective etc.
