Wow can't believe this video is picking back up steam again its SO OLD YOU GUYS SO OLD! So badly filmed... but I still agree with the content. I need to do a video 'Things I Miss About America'
If you're interested in any other videos like (with better video and audio now) please subscribe :)
WeeScottishLass Firstly, thank you. It's nice hearing someone from another country appreciate many of the wonderful things about America. And Americans do like your accent, as well as many others from around the world. I think that perhaps one reason we have a mutual affection is our Love of FREEEEDOM!!! :D
+WeeScottishLass
Just found this vid in the suggestions.
*Celtic Pride; Alba, Kernow, Cymru, Eire ...*
Ollie Plimsolls
*...Ellan Vannin, Bhriothán*
looks like youtube is propagating new videos again.
this randomly showed up as a "recommended" for me just today. That might be why it's "picking back up steam again".
also to correct something, it mostly depends on where you are in the states... for the north east...
winter = snow
spring = rain/mud
summer = hot
fall = dry / cool
more or less something along those lines. It's much more common for spring to have rain than fall. Additionally all the melting snow contributes to the wetness of spring.
and as I write this... 9 inches of snow slowly pile up outside waiting for me to shovel -_-
WeeScottishLass if you love Disney world you should check out worlds of fun in Kansas City Missouri it has tons of rides
As an American, I'm used to the experience of people from other countries hating us. Thank you for not hating us.
same!
same
Thanks for not hating us. **sniff**
I'm from the south of England and I think America is uneserserly hated.
did you just make a word up?
As an American I'm glad to hear that there are people who don't hate us and she has a great accent
Kody Hubbard sadly many people consider USA a great nation... What a bunch of stupid people!
Willy et scientia hahahaha yeah America just designed and made most of the advanced shit you use everyday.... I don’t know like the fucking INTERNET!!!!!
Now days I feel like everyone loves America, but they think we’re all fat bums and stupid.
Not as many people hate America as the left wants you to think cowboy.
The freedom of innovation is what makes America great. Most countries will just jail you and take your idea anyways. Aedyn's right that UCLA was the start of the internet, and I think it's pretty damn amazing.
minnesota has has 5 seasons
spring,summer,fall, winter and road constructing
Hahah no kidding every day getting to work is a bitch.
No, we have summer, football, deer hunting, winter, and road construction.
Southern California has four seasons... hot, hotter, hot as hell, and not as hot.
California has Fire Season.
@@Captain1nsaneo Not anymore. Now fire season is year-round.
This person is extremely likable
As an American I can tell you we love the Scotts because they are fierce people and we fancy ourselves as such, so its an easy kinship.
Well said, brother.
Truth
NYBORG. Well said. I was just thinking the same thing. The Scots don't fuck around. They will treat you well and when you go to fuck them over they will rain down hell on you. Kinda like what we do in the US.
I shid ken a um scottish a jist broke my own wrist I punched someone that hard in the shoulder
Preachn' to the choir.
I'm American and I was pleasantly surprised by this! I was under the impression that most everybody hated us (we're certainly not perfect) and you came along!! I'm not just saying this because of the video but I do actually love your accent. I have a Scottish friend and it's amazing how much she knows about American culture. She said she watches a lot of American T.V. lol. My accent is a muted southern accent.
Thanks for the awesome video!
AIC SKS You are one of the reasons that people hate us. A lot of people like you exist and yall give us a bad reputation.
It worries me you are learning america by our tv programing
Inquisitive Lady
I used to watch the Scottish program 'Ballykissangel' on Netflix here in America. Wish there were more Scottish
TV programs available.
braemtes23 ballykissangel is Irish. how'd you watch it and miss that?
We're not hated to the extent that the news suggests. Millions of people try to move here every year because they perceive a better life.
I talk to visitors whenever I can and they tell me what they enjoy about the USA. They tell me what surprised them when they arrived. Some examples of the surprising things they found: people are usually very friendly and open, prices are unexpectedly low, the drivers on the highway seem to have a lot of discipline, and the country is BIG.
We in Dixie love Scotland right back.
Sorry, I forget y'all don't use that term. Dixie is the southern states from Texas east and Kentucky on south.
Roll Tide
Yee yee
The South will rise again!!!
Southern men the thunders mutter!
Northern flags in South winds flutter!
To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!
Send them back your fierce defiance!
Stamp upon the cursed alliance!
To arms! To arms! To arms, in Dixie!
Many of us (especially in the Appalachian area and the South) have ancestors that came over from Scotland, so the fascination is mutual!
scottish accents and scottish girls totally rock...
MrFishluver Lauren Mayberry ❤️
MrFishluver I agree
Thanks :)))
Cheers love 😁
We Americans love Scotland too. Thing is half the time we can't understand what you're saying, but you sound great saying it!
I never have much trouble understanding the Scottish accent, but I do find it very lovely.
I needed subtitles for Trainspotting. (kidding)
Doc Bailey+ You trumptards only love their golf courses.
Nocturnal Recluse flag on the play. Go back under your bridge troll
Doc Bailey+ Why don't you go back to Russia? Oh, and take your POS president with you.
I'm Scottish and I love America. I agree with everything you said.
I know this was 4 years ago but I love Scotland as well. 😁😂
Laughed our loud when you said that Americans have "hot wings that will blow you face off." Love the video. Great accent. Love Scotland.
Aww! We love your Scottish accent too! Much adoration from USA!
When you grow up with one you may not adore it as much as you might think.
As an American...i agree, your accent is amazing.
Americans love Scotland because your accent is awesome, your whisky is awesome, your historical warrior culture is awesome, both our countries have had wars against the English, and a lot of Americans have Scottish blood in our veins. There's probably more Americans of Irish descent now, but Scottish culture has been a major influence on the US and Scots were settling in the US for a lot longer and really set the cultural tone for a lot of parts of the US.
Honestly, if I was going to visit the British Isles, I would fly into Scotland, and spend my entire trip there.
Right you are!
I was in agreement with you until your statement about the Scottish culture being a major influence on the US and setting the cultural tone for a lot of parts of the US. The influence and cultural tone, in large part, is a result of people of color....slaves, blacks from Africa. Even to this very day the language, music, food, overall vibe and style has been adopted, embraced, claimed and stolen from it's origin. And the origin is not from Europeans. Don't get it twisted.
True. But england Ireland' and wales are beautiful as well.
@@tiosaintbanks yeah not so sure about that one. Yes America has alot of African roots but not every single thing in America is influenced by it. Like language,what you said is just plain untrue.
Cute as a button! And the Scottish accent is by far my fav! Im always trying to imitate it! (I'm American)
can i upvote this 1000 times?
@@sixmax11 no
I want to thank you for this video.
I'm an American and TH-cam has opened my eyes to how other Countries REALLY feel about us and it has confused me since most everyday Americans harbor no ill will to anyone.
We're just like anyone else, living day to day, dealing with and worrying about what's going on in our lives.
I've seen so many videos that trash us and I guess I shouldn't take it to heart, but I do...
anyhow, you just added a new subscriber, a 66 year old woman who has very little in common with you except for 2 things:
An open mind,
and an accepting heart.
Thank you once more, you have no ideal how your words lifted my spirit.
Have a good day!
Marilyn Nesler hi, I am a Scot who was married to an American !! no matter where I went i got treated tops !! yep!! my American buddies ,, great guys !! still got a buddy in Oregon !! best pal.. we Scots love you guys !!
George Job ,
Thank you for your thoughtful reply and I'm glad to read that your time spent in the United States was positive.
Marilyn Nesler thanks for your kind reply !! yes, we Scots do love our American pals !! the good part is your not English.. lol.. God Bless America buddy !! big and beautiful !!
Marilyn Nesler Best comment I have ever had the pleasure of reading! I hope you have a wonderful life sweet lady!
Im an american from Texas and if anything we are facinated and inquisitive about people from different countries. Example .. i trained folks from all parts Africa, Romania, Hati , Cuba Austrailia.. My best friend now is from Africa. We know the world does not revolve around us as Americans. And yes some parts of the US folks are pretty loud like Boston for examlpe . lol. But over all we enjoy meeting people from all parts of the world.
Yo seriously Scottish people have the best accents.
Thanks =D
Dolan Pls yes they do . its a great accent.
Indeed they do
I feel loved😂I hate my Scottish accent
Anja Berg No, it's a lovely accent.
Scotland is such a beautiful country and the highlands are a lot like here in the White Mountains. Have never been there but saw so many beautiful lakes and mountains while watching Monarch of the Glen. In my small state there are 1000 lakes and ponds and I bet there are many lakes in Scotland as well. We have a Scottish import company here. Greetings from the Granite State!
Americans just love accents in general.
Ryan McPherson Agree! Listening to other Americans, we sound monotone, flat, whereas Scottish, Irish sound mellifluous. It’s a pleasure to listen to.
Not true. I hate the Queen's English, the New York and New Jersey accents, and I'm not all that fond of the Texan accent. Some southern accents are pretty, my favorite being Oklahoma. Boston is kinda cool, especially since that's where my parents and girlfriend are from. Scottish and Australian English are both nice. I speak Spanish and enjoy it, but there are dialects of it that I don't enjoy... the ones in Spain and Argentina being unfavorable to me. Italian is nice. Romanian too. French is kinda dull and lazy sounding to me. There are many other languages that have accents (Russian, Arabic and Asian languages, and others) that just don't do it for me. So, to say that Americans just love accents in general... nope.
@@Salsuero maybe YOU don't. One single American. But, there are lots of others who do. No one person's opinion can change an entire countries outlook on things.
@@a.j.vaskunas9875 Americans don't have an accent so, of course we sound monotone! 😊 I mean, we have our particular way of speaking obviously buuut, that comes from the absence of accent. We speak neutral English, giving us that monotone and "boring" sound compared to other countries.
@@mars7612 No one person? Not one? Like FDR's opinion didn't matter? Abraham Lincoln didn't have opinions that changed a country's outlook? No one? I'm an American. You said Americans love accents. I refuted that statement pretty clearly. So, to say Americans generically... you could say "some" or "many" or even "most" but if you don't qualify it, you are applying it to the entire group. Nope!
Aw, you're cute. We do love the Scottish. You're like tough Canadians with a much better accent.
byronicman well Canada does have a lot of Scottish history as when Canada was building itself a lot of Scott's went over to populate the area
Lol awesome!
hell yes.
By the way Canadians are tough and have and an amazing accent 😤
byronicman fuck ya 🤘
She is adorable
Shawn Snyder Quite.
Shawn Snyder Yes! A sweet soul..
I'm from North America, thanks for the love, most Americans love Scottish accents!
Nice to be refreshed about how not everyone hates us.
Just found this video and love it. I feel that many Americans (including myself) have Scottish heritage creating a deeper and not meaningful connection. At least that is the truth for me. Very proud of my Scottish heritage. 😁
I wasn't expecting this. I was expecting to like open the video and hear you be kind of sarcastic about it because as an American I'm so used to other countries hating and making fun of us.
Not me!!! I adore america =D I can't wait to go back!!!! Can you all adopt me? I could have America down as my second place of living and I could just be like the family pet to you all xD
WeeScottishLass yes. We will all adopt you and you come be our sister and have lots of fun at Disney world with us!
WeeScottishLass Welcome to the family!
Wow, this was one of the best comment threads I've read in a long while. Makes me so happy, ☺☺☺☺i want to go to Scotland and be adopted lol live the accent, culture, people, some foods 😉
EmmyDearest1619 I'm Scottish and love America I've been to Florida twice and I also am going to New York next year when I finish high school I wanna travel through all the states
Yeah, every American i know likes the Scottish people and of course a lot of us in America have some Scottish blood in us.
redfish right here im a stewart from what i read about my stewart clan were not only highlanders but we also fought along side the great william Wallace
The reason is the Brits. William Wallace vs George Washington begin
mquiroz90 that's because we're all out of the same blood.
Mark M we ain't creatures we sexually identify as the Moon you fuckin' cactus
yuriaz brown Washington was the President
I’m from America and I ADORE Scotland. Best accent I’ve ever heard!
I'm from America and would *love* to see Scotland! I love the accents, the culture and would *love* to see The Highlands. You guys are *awesome* ! (And I *love* the rain, too!) 😃😘XOXO
Its funny that you love American accents... I love Scottish accents! I don't realize I have an accent half the time haha.
America loves you too Lass. The Scottish always have a high place in respect and adoration in America.
Yes, from an American of English, Scottish and Irish descent, I agree.
This is irrelevant but I panicked for a second think there was a fly on my screen because of ur profile pic 😂
Darlin' I just adore the way ya'll talk. Much love from Texas!
Great video, thanks for the compliments on our beautiful country, and yes your accent is soooo adorable! 😍
As an American of Scottish descent, this video made me happy.
hammyX18 Same and i have Scottish heritage too lol
Me too
hammyX18 Same! If you are scottish please come to the american south your always welcome here,after all the scotts did make up a majior of americans.
Me as well, from the way north of Scotland so I'm told ☺☺☺☺
Same
You are so stinkin' cute!! This video made me smile & laugh! Thank you for loving us! I could listen to your voice all the day long!
Totally agree, she is so adorable and that accent.....oh man you must be such a total heartbreaker lol :)
Apey Dee agreed
They could use a photo of her in the dictionary to illustrate the word "cute"!! Man, she IS hot.
Found your posts when I was telling my 8 year old daughter about our Scottish heritage. My grandmother immigrated from Scotland with her parents when she was young. She unfortunately passed away before my youngest daughter was born so I am trying to pass along what I know about our history (which unfortunately isn’t much). My daughter was so excited so find out she is half Scottish and absolutely loves the accent and tries to replicate it. That will take awhile lol. She and I both can’t wait to find out more about our Scottish heritage and look forward to one day being able to visit there. Have enjoyed your posts!! Thanks so much!
I genuinely love America. -
❤️ from Scotland!
Why? I didn’t realise how much love for the US there was in Scotland (not a bad thing though, just surprised by it).
Love you more Scotland 🏴
I know this was 4 years ago but thanks and I love Scotland too. 😁
Im scottish and i love america
I just adore your videos!! I found your channel by watching one you did with Diane. My husband calls her "the adorable Irish girl" and now calls you "the adorable Scottish girl" when he asks if you have a new video. It's so nice to hear when people from other countries say nice things about the US. My sister was going to college in New Zealand when the September 11th attacks happens. She said she her so many people saying horrible things about the US at the time to her. They were even more rude, if they found out she was a Texan. In Summer, we only have Summer. The rest of the year it's like Mother Nature pulls a season card out of a hat to see if it's going to be Fall, Winter, or Spring weather. We've had days where I was wearing shorts and flip flops in the morning, and by the time the sun was going down, it was snowing.
You are THE cutest Scot ever. So glad I found your vlog. Visiting the Fatherland in May, Isle of Skye here I come... CAN NOT WAIT!
Sweet Heart! We love the Scots, cause a large population of Americans migrated from Scotland. When you are here; we want you to feel at home.
And of course when you are here, you can shoot guns without getting into trouble.
don't forget the whiskey you brought over for the rest of us oddballs! cheap scotch
111455 yeah! I love scotch whiskey! (or any whiskey, really, but if you want tasty stuff for cheap, it's the best option. )
my 5th great grandfather was of scottish decent, born in cootehill,ireland.
fought in the revolution(colonists)settled in eastern ohio, and built a grist mill in cadiz,ohio,there he made corn whiskey. the land of his farm, is where cadiz now has a park. (sally buffalo(mcfadden)park.
there is no e in Scotch Whisky,the Irish spell it that way.just a small fact,
I am in no way trying to stroke Your ego , but after stumbling across your video , and seeing your adorable face and hearing your lovely accent........ oh my , My heart was melting. You just got a new subscriber and a click on the like button.
YEY thank you Gator =D
WeeScottishLass hay i am from Alabama I just subed but I want to tell you thanks for being a nice person.Also I got family in Scotland and one of my ansesters was hanged there.Also me being from the south we get made fun of all the time.you are so nice and cute do thanks for being my friend and like we say in Alabama see y'all over the mountain bye😀😀😀😄😄😄😎😎🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇱
gator 13 stfu gator! keep focusing on your Viking games.
gator 13 I second that. Her accent is just the bees knees 😉
gator 13 boner intensifies
This is quite refreshing! It's not very often I come across a positive video about America. I love Scotland even more now.
I can't love this video enough! As an American I can whole heartedly say I also love Scottland! Thank you so much for being an amazing country!
my family migrated to America from Scotland so i LOVE the Scottish people... and you guys are just awesome
Crossing Dimensions 😊
Aww thanks! No one really compliments us or our accent. Also, I can't speak for all Americans, but my friends and I love your accent! Lots of love from America ❤
your cute I just love your accent
LightsØutBri ... You must not be a southerner. Lol
LightsØutBri lots of love from Scotland ❤️❤️
Greeting from Tennessee where it is early spring and the trees and flowers are blooming as Earth comes back to life. Enjoyed your video and your accent; it speaks to the Scot blood in me ( back many generations, though, as my people have been in North America for over 400 years). One day, I do so hope to visit Scotland.
Great video hearing your voice makes me miss my old Scottish M8s from my college Battlefield squad. Those boys were crazy and great fun.
America loves yous back girl. Cheers from NW Montana.
(What's Offal?)
+blueslove61 .. Waffel
Offal is entrails and organ meats, and it is totally legal to eat in the US.
Texas3Step
A lot of organ meat is sold and consumed Stateside, but I've never seen or heard of anybody eating the lung of any animal. Brains,tripe, gizzards, heart, tongue. Here in NW Montana we eat deep fried bull testicles often, but not lung.
blueslove61 Same here - I have not heard of anyone eating lung in form, but all those other parts are eaten in many different dishes. I've had haggis. I thought once was enough, but my husband loved it.
haggis
my ancestors came from the highlands of Scotland and settled in North Carolina. I love Scotland and will be visiting there soon
We will welcome you with wide open hairy arms :)
As an American watching this in 2020 during quarantine and feeling very stressed about the next few months heading up to November 3rd, it was so nice to find this video. I visited Scotland for the first time last year and I knew I would like it, but I had no idea how intensely I would love it. I walked away feeling as though I felt more comfortable in your country than I do in mine. Scots are very special people. Also, your channel is just lovely.
Of course I love Scotts. You all represent half my blood heritage. I also happen to live immersed in Appalachian sub-culture, which has deep Celtic roots, both Scotts and Irish. One minor example is what we locally call "hogmaw," also known as "stuffed sow belly." It is an American version of haggis. Another example is "hillbilly fiddle" music, music for traditional Appalachian dancing. That fiddle music is a replacement for bagpipes. The list gets longer.
I also happen to be a card carrying member of a Scottish clan. Something we say in my area is, "All Scotts are related to other Scotts, and all Scotts are related to royalty." So from my youth, I was raised to acknowledge Scotts as kinsmen.
Same here! I was blessed with documents passed down to me from my mother, from the previous generations before her, that show our family highland Clan Stewart and McCracken birth lineage-& all the “begets” LOL- from Scottish royalty, to on & off the boat LOL, to ending up in Ohio. The food & music notation is spot on as well, although I personally prefer bagpipes -and a man in a kilt LOL
"Scots"
You are not Scottish and will never be Scottish
I'm a Native American Indian (Southern Ute) and I'm crushing on your vlogs!! My husband and I are going to Scotland and Ireland next year!! It's our dream place!! I guess my question I have for you is: what do Scottish people think of American Indians? Can't wait to see more vlogs from you!!
Hey Bethany =D Glad you found the channel! Welcome!
I think Indians are AMAZING but I don't know much about them other than playing games when I was a child x'D
WeeScottishLass Very interesting! And thank you for replying! I can't wait to see your country! It looks beautiful! The history and landscape is breathtaking, but those are pictures! Have wonderful day and great weekend!!
WeeScottishLass
At the risk of being a dirty ol' man, ha ha ,your eyes and hair at at least as beautiful as your voice and opinion. Just found your clip today.
Oh boy, another Pretendian.
Ha, I'm First Nation Ute too. Would dream of going to Scotland.
Enjoy your trip. It seems the Scots are a fine and beautiful people.
Wow I am so humbled by the growing popularity of this video! 370+ comments and counting, but I won't be able to reply to them all anymore guys =D But I still want to let you all know you're awesome!!
I love you (: and I love Scotland. From America
OH MY GOD *.* A TROLL!!!! YEY! You're one of my first Delta, you're so cute *.* Can I keep you? I promise to feed you and I will brush your fur and take you for walks =D
WeeScottishLass So I'm a troll now for having an opinion?
So so cute =D You actually think you're allowed an opinion on the internet, bless you
WeeScottishLass What the fuck is going on, why you're rude to me?
This is a sweet video. Thank you and much love to Scotland from your friend in Texas.
I was really amazed by this video. Im not sure how i stumbled across it but it was a fun video to watch. It almost felt like you were saying nice things to me, since I live in America. Which really goes to show how well your personality comes through. If you like doing this sort of thing I hope it works out great. Cheers
This young girl makes a simple video stating her opinion of what she likes and thinks. Many people like it and give encouragment. THEN the TROLLS come out. For God's sake if you got something to say make a video and upload it, She did it. I was raised with the idea that if you have nothing good to say , then say nothing! Unfortunatly it seems that there are plenty of people out there that still believe what their mommy and daddy told them when they were little. That everything they made was a masterpiece and every stupid word that falls from their mouth is a combination of genius and the word of God! Grow up guys!
crossbow1203 shut the fuck up.
You didn't have anything nice to say. So silence should have been your response.
Wee Scottish Lass, you're adorable! I'm an American living in the South, state of Virginia, in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains! I, too, love this country.
Scots-Irish migrated down the Great Appalachian Valley, and they are the ancestors for many people living in the Appalachians. Many of us still say words and phrases of Scots-Irish origin, and the Appalachian music has its roots in the music brought here by Scottish and Irish settlers. It's beautiful!
I started looking at pictures of Scotland and Ireland, and immediately thought, "Oh, my! This looks exactly like where I live! No wonder my ancestors settled here, in the Blue Ridge and Great Smokey Mountains!!! It's just like home to them!"
I am extremely proud to be of Scots-Irish ancestry. They were a tough, hard-working people, and those traits are still found in their ancestors today.
If you ever come to the Blue Ridge Mountains--I live in Roanoke, Virginia, in Southwest Virginia--I would love to show you around.
Scot here. Same respect goes to Americans such as yourself with Scot ancestry!
The Scotch-Irish/early mountaineer pride is sTrOnG in the Appalachian area
You live in Roanoke? I live about 30 minutes away in the NRV :)
From Lynchburg, VA. and Scots-Irish! Hello Cousin!
I took a trip to the mother land just last year. Scotland and Ireland. Scotland by far is more beautiful and breathtaking than Ireland. On the trip I kept thinking; how did our ancestors do it? How could they leave this magnificent place?
bbonner422 - Started in Belfast and made our way South on the Eastern side of Ireland. Saw the Cliffs of Moher. Did not get up North to see Giants Causeway. Was disappointed about that. Went around the Ring of Kerry. Never got down there to County Cork and that surrounding area. Disappointed about that too. Only had a week. You really need more time. I would have loved to experience and explore more of Ulster and well just everywhere. My maternal grandfather’s genealogy goes back to all the ancient kings of all four provinces. The place is in my blood.
So GREEN! Wow! I definitely didn’t get to see everything.
Happy day! Thanks for the tips. I’m visiting Scotland for Christmas and New Years. I used to work at Disney World! Sounds like I’ll have a great time!
Your energy and fondness of us is absolutely adorable. Very cute video.
The Scots are brave, incredible history, amazing scenery. Love from America
Eric Johnson thanks I'm from Scotland
Yasmine Elbekhti Me tae
Here in Texas, we love people from Scottish people!
That's funny coz we love you too =D your sense of humour is the same as ours!! Sick and twisted HAHAHA xD
Lewis Lem Damn Skippy ! I got Scott blood in me
Hey, I was on the 82nd as well....kewl
Strike Hold
Lewis Lem up north of you, in Oklahoma, we do too. Texas is the shit also.
The way she says Autumn made my heart melt! Love it!
I'm american and I'll be moving to the UK for uni in a few months. This video made me feel so loved and happy I want to cry! I've been so worried that people wouldn't like me over in the UK because I'm american and think that my accent is annoying, but you have made my confidence level go through the roof! Thank u and love u
*We Americans love the Scots, their fighting spirit & your beautiful accents. I believe the largest segment of our Anglo population in the U.S.A. traces it's roots back to Old World Scotland, England & Ireland. My family has been here for generations. When we kids would ask our grandfather about our family history? He would only tell us we were "Scot, Cherokee, Devil & Dog." Lol! Your mentioning of the vastness of America is why a lot of Americans don't travel much abroad. America is so BIG there are places that I have never been & may never see in my lifetime. It would take several lifetimes to explore it all especially because of having to spend most of the time making a living. We have the mountains, the hills & canyons, vast forests, the deserts, the tropics, the beaches. Every town & state are different. There are many different American accents not just one. There are the Boston accents, the New York Northeast accents, the Midwest accents, the Carolina Coastal accents the southern accents, Cajun accents, Texas & Western accents. America is a BIG place like you said!*
I can verify us Americans love the Scottish. They are generally some of our favorite people, one of my personal favorite people, because they are down to earth, cool, not cocky and we have this kind of image of Scotts as being brave, strong willed people who fight and stand up for what they believe in. I am from the American state of West Virginia and a nickname for my people is "hill billy" we got this nickname due to a large number of Scotts settling here due to the mountainous terrain of West Virginia (we are known as the mountain state, our motto is "wild and wonderful") and the Scotts gained great admiration from George Washington referring to them as the brave billies in the hills (I guess a nickname for Scottish people is billies?) and thus the nickname for my people came from Scotts.
+anthony sauls I've heard that the name hillbilly came from the Scots-Irish who settled in the backcountry. They were known as "billies" because they supported protestant William of Orange (who they called King Billy) over the catholic King James II during the Glorious Revolution.
soccerchamp0511 very interesting. I am familiar with King William of Orange but to be honest my area of study is more towards Rome and the 1st and 2nd world war so while I am somewhat familiar with other time lines I would not claim to know a whole lot about them.
+soccerchamp0511 That's about 95% true. We also call them hillbillies because of they tend to live in the hills of the Southeast. I'm talking about the North Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia area. You're absolutely right about their Scots-Irish ancestry and about the support of William of Orange. It is important to note that this moniker is specific to the Southeast, and maybe parts of the Ozarks. Of course, there are mountains in the Northwest (Washington, Oregon, Montana), but the majority of that area is of a different ancestry, so the moniker doesn't apply. There's a much larger mixture of cultures in the Northwest. Native American, Pacific Islander, Mexican, and East Asian.
Burn Blister this is true but the name is generally associated with West Virginians and the origination of the name came as thus and that is what I meant.
You are absolutely stunning! This American loves Scottish people. I love people from all over our world. In my experiences with Scottish born people are so kind, have always been respectful, and talk so beautifully truthful and raw
My ancestors left Scotland over 400 years ago but I would love to come visit. Your enthusiasm is infectious. Keep up the great work!
Okay, I'll pile on. Scottish accent is the best : ) Really mean it. It's "all time".
Thank you =D
WeeScottishLass I HOPE YOU GET MY MESSAGE BECAUSE SCOTLAND FOOOOKING ROCKS! LOVE YOU GUYS!
I start this and imedietly say " OMG I LOVE THE ACCENT"
you never heard proper one
The Desert Gamer me tooooo
I'm Texan. What accent is she talking about ?
Armour Faithful this girl has the poshest accent hahaha, sounds like a university student
Love it!! One of the top 3 places I want to visit and live for a month is Scotland. Keep it up.
I actually came to the comments to say how much I ADORE your accent lmao (I’m from the northeast United states) it’s just so beautiful - I love the cadence so so so much!!!
Comeing from a Scottish person I adore America and am hoping to one day move there one day❤️😍 we love how u don't have school uniforms and ur amazing food we also LOVE our food we love ur massive building and ur big shops because here in Scotland we don't get Sephora or Beverly Hills Anastasia we love ur massive houses and cars and swimming pools in ur garden that u can go to in the hot summer sun where as we hardly ever get sun we are jealous of ur natural sun tan but we end up looking like oranges with fake tan trying to achieve a natural tan colour ( we love love love America)
Chloe Ware we like you too because we like to be liked! 😘
Coming from an American that's second generation (father, and his parents came from Scotland) i'd really like to move to Scotland one day...or at least visit.
Chloe, behave your self , that is from a Scot, she forgot to tell you we have massive castles , and it is not a good look if a Scot tries to get a suntan in the sun . Scottish lassies look very beautiful with there pale skins , as when they grow old they look a lot younger than folks who loved lying in the sunshine .Take it from me as my wife who is a Scot did not go out in the sun here in Australia , has a skin very much softer than one who has done , wrinkles a lot less . True.
lol, so I stumbled on your video. I'm American and am living in Florida. I think it's so funny that y'all love our 'accents' when I love yours. I've talked so a few tourist and I get mesmerised by y'all accent. It's kind of embarrassing, since I've not done that with any other accent but Scottish & Irish. (yes I'm aware they are different)
"Film" is my favorite word to have an Irish person say. Scottish people can say just about anything, and i want them to read to me.
Just caught up to this channel and video, thanks to your Irish mate Diane. My niece has Scottish friends and has been over at least 5 times. I'm mulling a trip myself, maybe this year. Cheers!
Hello from southern California, (Los Angeles). I can literally listen to you speak all day! Your country is so beautiful!
I love all the green hills and the old castles the most. We just don't have anything like that here, if something starts to
get old, we tear it down and put up a shopping mall.
I could literally listen to you speak all day.
+Jorden Locke Great because I put up a new video every week ;D
+WeeScottishLass if you could like dedicate a whole video to speaking american slang terms and sayings that would literally be amazing. I could probably watch it over and over again because of your accent. Haha I feel like that sounds so weird.
Why dont you give me some slang and words etc and I'll make that video a reality :)
+WeeScottishLass as long as I get to hear you speak ill do whatever I can. I'll make a list tomorrow
I've got a list of 30+ vlogs I am working my way through just now x'D Some are easier to do than others, what slang video was it you'd recommended again?
I'm an American, went to Scotland, England, and Ireland last summer...have to say Scotland was the best. Loved it there...Edinburgh was amazing...people were so friendly.....3 of my great grandparents are from there and 1 from Ireland...I loved it there and can't wait to go back....and yes, I LOVE your accents!!!
I love this video. It was quite touching in some way. Thank you!
Awww, I remember seeing this a while back. 😁 I wondered what happened to you until I recently rediscovered your channel.
Much love,
Scott
Moscow I've just found your vlog today. I'm Scottish American, 3rd Generation. I live in the South in the mountains in East Tennessee.
Thank you so much for giving some insight into life there. My daughter and granddaughters love to here you talk.
Ya'll have a nice day!
Mosco stupid smartphone
HAHAHA thank you so much and dont worry I always get that autocorrect haha xD
kool ben, me too in north florida ...
I love your accent. I can understand you. When I visited Northern Scotland, I went into a pub for a pint and a very nice Scottish gentleman sitting next to me started chatting with me. I could not understand a word he said. All I could do was smile and nod. Felt like an idiot. Love your videos. Clever. Thanks
Hugs and kisses from Florida.. so much love and respect for Scotland. 💙
American here. I think you hit spot on about the accent. My girlfriend and I both find the Scottish accent absolutely magical. Americans are also very proud of their Scottish heritage (where it applies). We always catch Albannach (Scottish drums and pipe group who travel extensively through the US) whenever they come through.
Thanks for the video. Very entertaining!
I think you are the cutest lass I've ever encountered on TH-cam...love your vids; very entertaining indeed. I was stationed with the USAF in Sassenach land (RAF Woodbridge, near Ipswich, Suffolk) for eight years. My absolute favorite place to visit was anywhere in Scotland, by far. Western Highlands, OMG. There are a huge number of Scots-heritage descendants in the U.S., and they're very proud of "The Old Country" as well they should be. Most Americans think very highly of Scotland and the Scots; we share a long history of seeking freedom and liberty for our people. And we do indeed love the accent...actually, American-accented English is thought to be originally derived from the Scots-Irish accents filtered through the sound-worlds of the large number of other languages spoken by immigrants to the New World over the years. You're always welcome on this side of the pond if you're Scottish!
I just watched this and you are so adorable! I could listen to you speak for hours. Did I mention I love David Tennant! I could listen to him read the phone book. Lastly, thank you for saying those very kind things about America. We sometimes get a bad rap, but the majority of us are friendly, happy and genuinely curious about visitors from other lands and we love to talk and ask questions(well I do)😊
Aww, you are adorable. Thank you so much! We love Scotland too
Thank you. I stumbled upon your channel and I must say I became an instant fan. I was lucky enough to tour through Scotland in July. Camped in Glasgow, Isle of Skye, north eastern coast ( Aberdeen I Think) and then Edinburgh.
Skye was rainy, cold & windy. Aberdeen was warmer, and Edinburgh was lovely. What made our travels awesome were you Scots. You all made us feel welcome.
mark smedley YEY THANKS MARK!! =D
OMG lol yes we absolutely adore your accent! I stumbled across your videos because i have an opportunity to take a job in Edinburgh. And now i cant stop listening lol
Hello "Wee Scottish Lass" since I dont know your actual name quite yet, greetings from America!
I just watched your video on "Why Scottish people love America" and I absolutely loved it.
I am actually going to Scotland for a trip September 30th to October 7th! I was quite nervous about going because I was under the assumption that Americand were kinda hated throughout the world, but your video made me feel so much better! If you would like, I would like to chat some more about Scotland and hopefully make a new friend in the process!
You are such a sweetheart! Thanks for the compliments! I will be in Edinburgh May '17!
Ohhhh you're welcome! I hope you enjoy it =D
Actually... I know you will ^^
Aww thank you, as an American I think my accent is very boring so it's nice having someone compliment mine
What accent? If you are from the south maybe, but in the northern US we have no accent.
C MJ lol, what? every human being on the planet has an accent. Even if your accent is sort of a standard American accent (which is an American accent that has no clear regional dialect markers). That is still an accent. And I am sure you have some sort of northern accent because there are many different accents in the Northern United states. Personally, I have a pretty standard American accent, but I am from Chicago, so I say some things with a bit of a Chicago accent or a Midwestern accent. There is no such thing as having no accent at all unless you never speak.
Hmm, yeah I think every speaker of every language inherently has some sort of accent. With that said, as a Midwesterner I can’t really tell if what our accent sounds like other than simply “accent-less” To me, we all kinda sound bland, but everything is spoken pretty clearly.
Haidyn Humes I know how you feel #Floridian
Actually everyone has an accent but we don't know it because its normal for us. If you live in America (I do) and you travel to Great Britain you will think they have an accent but they will think you have one
Love your accent #1, and I definitely love your interest in America matching my interest in Scotland. Definitely earned a sub and a like from me!
Ok, number one: Your accent is absolutely DELIGHTFUL, it's literally HALF the reason I like these videos. Two: food is awesome. I wish we could trade foodstuffs just to have different things to try. Three: in Maine (north eastern USA) we actually have six seasons! Summer, Autumn, Winter, Mud Season, Spring, and Construction Season :D
Okay, you like compliments. Love your accent, your attitude and your pretty face and smile are on the list as well. Glad to see some positive about America. I love it here and have traveled most of it. Been to a few other countries as well but this is home and I do love my guns
Awww thank you Jeff =DD
WeeScottishLass u are so sexy you accent make me melt
Kevin Oloane °-°
LOL. I'm from California and travelled with a Scottish ex-colleague throughout the west of the USA. At breakfast the servers never understood the drink she was asking for - coffee. She pronounced it "coffay" and the "co-" part was further back in the throat than how we say it. They'd look at her weird and then I'd say that she wants "KAH-fee". Then they'd go "Ohhhh.". I couldn't understand how they couldn't figure it out. What else do you expect people to ask for at breakfast? But it was fun to see. Then, after she got her "coffay" she'd say "coloured water", as she felt it too weak to be considered proper coffee.
HAHAHAHA x'D coloured water
... your videos are most enjoyable, keep them coming my we' lassie 😉👍
Great channel! I've watched a few videos now. I live in Massachusetts. I've never been to Scotland, but somewhere back there one of my ancestors had the largest kosher butcher shop in Glasgow!
I am of Scotch descent and I think what I admire of the Scotch is there resistance to oppression throughout history whether it was from the Romans or the English. Perhaps it is that sense of rebellion you we have in common. Accents are funny thing. You don't have to go across an ocean to experience different accents of English language. Heck where I live if I go an hour or less I can hear 3 distinct accents. Northern New Jersey, Southern New Jersey/Philly, and when you get around Harrisurg PA. It's all good.
I'm fifth generation Scotch-Irish. Family came from the Highlands and settled in the Appalachia region of Kentucky, then picked up and moved to the Ozarks. I'm told my accent is 100% pure hillbilly. Someday I'm traveling to Scotland and Ireland.
go ahead and keep telling yourself that. hahahahaha
am going to Scotland, Ireland, an wales on my bucket list, will be spending a month seeing as much as I can. don
I think every Kentuckian would love to visit Scotland and Ireland.
Somerled Henderson I know Scotch isn't the correct word but the term Scotch Irish has been passed down for many generations. I know this because my mothers side of the family is Scots Irish. I learned from the actor/comedian Craig Ferguson that Scots is the correct term. He'd go crazy when somebody said Scotch in the wrong context. Aww, I love Craig Ferguson and guess why....he has such a cute Scottish accent or he did when he first came over here.
Scotch is the correct term if you're 5th generation Ozarks hillbilly. :)
