I lived in Glasgow for 6 months and I can truly state that Scotland is my dream country to live in. So I'm happy people talk about it but also afraid that it becomes hype and let's be honest, it would ruin the feeling of freedom of this beautiful country :(
OK Ryan, your pronunciation is diabolical, but don't worry, probably 95% of Scots can't pronounce some of the Gaelic names of the places you describe, either. Nevertheless, you sound very sincere and I love your American accent. Your enthusiasm comes over really well. Thanks for all the compliments about my homeland. Haste ye back.
Spot on Duncan, most Scottish people don't get much north of Stirling right, me included and I'm absolutely hopeless at anything outside of the UK. Loved the video Ryan and always happy to see people come from anywhere around the world and enjoy the country.
What a beautiful video Ryan, much better than the 'Visit Scotland' adverts and I fully agree with Duncan. You've probably visited more places in Scotland than many Scots including myself and why anyone on here is taking offence at your pronunciations is beyond me you are after all not Scottish and you have a beautiful accent of your own, where are you from is it the USA or Canada? As my fellow Scot said 'Haste ye back' and if you ever need a place to rest your head and have a nice meal you are welcome to spend some time with my family and I here in Stirlngshire 👍 My Grandson's name is Ryan also and it's supposed to mean 'Little King' 🦹♀️💗
One of the finest place you will ever find. I was in Dundee University for 2 yrs, till today I still missed every bit of it, the people are so polite and their accent is the best part difficult to hear yet so unique. The funniest part is till today when I'm hungry at night I often visit Scotland especially Lddle, Tesco etc so whenever I want to go to Scotland in my dreams I go to bed empty stomach. - With Love from Mizoram
I'm from Sudan and my ultimate dream is to live in Scotland, everything about it from its building to its people is just fascinating to me , the only thing I'm afraid of is not the weather and not coping with the Scots very well, but other than that I think it's absolutely lovely!
Bit late for a reply but as a Scot myself I can say that we are really friendly. I’ve got some friends from abroad and they all say that Scottish people are some of the nicest they have met. As for the weather, well you’ll get used to it soon enough lol
Damn, I didn't know Scotland was this rough. It really reminds me of my trip to Iceland. The vast empty landscapes and giant mountains really looks like the Icelandic landscapes. Love it!
I visited Scotland in 2012. It’s was an amazing trip. Eight days driving by the left along the Highlands and the Isle of Skye. Unforgettable. I’ve never seen landscapes like that and I’ve never been bitten by midges like there in all my life. 😃
Love your adventures. When my husband and I went to Scotland for the first time. We met one of the local pipers on the Mile and bought drinks for him and his girlfriend. When they found out it was our 40th anniversary we all hiked up to Arthur's Seat and the piper played a tune for us as we sat on one of the boulders looking out over Edinburgh at sunset.. I have a photo of the piper playing. He is a silhouette with the backdrop of Edinburgh. It was absolutely the highlight of our travels.
I grew up in the Highlands! I urge you to visit Loch Ness! Also visit the outer Hebrides. If you want peace and seclusion, go to the Isle of Jura, it's inhabited by 150 people and 3000 deer! It's got beautiful mountains and a famous whisky distillery!
I visited Scotland a couple of years ago and even though I didn't see half of the places mentioned in this video, I fell in love with this country. This video has confirmed my love and now I am sure that I'll go back to Scotland one day!
It's pronounced EDINBURRAH. It annoys me when people visit but still don't try to get them right. Most of Ryan's pronunciations are diabolical. I'm Scottish born and raised so it's disrespectful to willfully misprounounce places and then make videos about it, as if you're an expert.
Thank you for making this, so pretty! I've been a bit glum about social distancing but as a scot I'm lucky to have so much beautiful nature around 🌍🌿🏴
So much more to see, loch lomand is amazing need to be brave to drive the little winding road but worth it, the devils pulpit, Glasgow, glen Coe, Ben Nevis, driving down the coast of the Clyde is a brilliant drive, from Glasgow to Largs need to stop and get chips in Largs but watch out for the seagulls they are a bit scary. I work in a little village hotel on the west coast there’s so much to see and do.
@@RyanShirley I'm from county Waterford in Ireland but I live in the UK, and I love both countries so much, I'm really hoping for a video on Indian, Pakistan and Nepal though, I love these countries and their beautiful cultures
@@targetglen BTW, a sentence should never start with 'And' unless an ellipsis is being used. Also, a semi-colon is used to separate two identical parts within a sentence, both given equal rank. Clearly not what is depicted in your comment. (Check out Matthew Chapter 7 verse 3 in the good book). On the plus side, congratulations on your spelling. Just saying...
I love your footage, and love your appreciation of our beautiful wee country. I feel a bit bad for all the negative comments though - yes some of the pronunciations were a bit off but I reckon if all these people complaining were to visit your country they will pronounce plenty of things incorrectly. Hell, some Scottish people even pronounce places in Scotland incorrectly! 😂 But then again, most of it is just good natured banter so I wouldn’t take it to heart. We really are a friendly bunch ☺️ Your video is amazing and makes me proud to be Scottish. There is still so much to see and do so I hope you come back and make more amazing videos ☺️ I particularly recommend the outer Hebrides, like Harris and Lewis and all the surrounding islands in the outer Hebrides. Another favourite place of mine are the silver sands of Morar, situated between Arisaig and Mallaig on the north west coast. Haste ye back! 😊
I always look up how to pronounce places before going somewhere as its the respectful thing to do, Edinburrow drives me nuts when its said 376,444 times lol

Well I live on Skye & I'm looking forward to there being far fewer tourists here this year - though for the 'wrong reason'. It used to be an Island of Peace.

As much as some pronunciations aren't perfect (that's an easy fix!), I'm glad Scotland is getting the recognition it deserves.

Ryan Shirley we live in Cupar, Fife, 10 miles from St.Andrews. We love the west coast. Normally go in April/May before the midges get come out in force.
How do they manage it eh😅😅 I think its learned by hearing it like that!! Because it doesnt even look like that. The pronunciations in this video is a wild ride 😅 love it lol
I’m Scottish and I don’t know as many places as this guy 😂 you should visit Dunkeld, Perth they have an amazing hotel and amazing activities. It’s all and all a great holiday and worth the money!
My family came from Kilmarnock. I am not pure scot, because I was born in America, but I can speak Scottish, and I have visited there over 5 times. Erase yér heends fer Scotland!
Haha like other Scots I was correcting pronunciations but it's a good video. You've missed some really good places but Skye is absolutely stunning. Need a good amount of time up there to do everything.
Ryan Shirley no we live in the US but we’ve visited several times. Last time we took the sleeper train from London to Inverness last year and loved it. Highly recommend it. All the best.
I loved ur passion for my country but had to laugh at the amount of times you apologised in case u'd pronounced areas wrong........but didn't with Edinburgh or Glasgow which you couldn't have pronounced more wrong if ud tried 💙 Edinburgh is pronounced Edin....burrah or Edin...bruh or the toon as we call it here 👍& Glasgow is Glazz...go! If ur ever in Edinburgh again, I'll give you a tour of the top 10 best pubs, live bands, a pint of tennents & Scottish banter....can't beat it. Fab vid & as I said, ur love of Scotland will always be returned tenfold 🏴🏴 💙 🏴🏴
Thanks Yvonne! I definitely had a hard time with those names but thanks for your kind suggestions and advice! I need them!! And I’ll have to take up your offer when I’m in Edinburgh!!
Am American, moved to edinburgh in 1987 and never looked back. Your enthusiasm touches me with nostalgia for the same wonder (and shite pronunciation! :-) I felt when I first arrived. I live on Calton Hill and yet despite being right in the thick of it for many years, frequently I am still awestruck as I walk down Princes Street and look up,to the castle or many of the other eye candies dotted throughout my adopted city and country - still the most beautiful in the world. Thanks.
This is one of my favorite comments I've ever gotten, I think thats so cool you moved there and you understand what its like to see everything for the first time and the difficult translations. I'm jealous you live in Calton hill, its hard to beat the magic of that city.
@@RyanShirley flew in with my motorcycle, landed in prestwick on the west coast. I will never forget that first jaw dropping moment as I entered edinburgh at the west end of princes street and looked up at the castle and gardens. It was like real life Middle Earth…! I live mostly in Prague now, but still have my flat on calton hill; sadly can’t shuttle between the two frequently as I used to thanks to COVID. The Hebrides are my favourite and also I highly recommend the Isle of Man. If u get back to edinburgh give me a shout and can offer the apartment.
There’s some great places in Scotland to go to, one which most likely wouldn’t come up in most searches is lochindorb, which is north of grantown, it is a Loch with (a now though to be artificially created) island in it which has the ruins of a castle which used to be the seat of a a man who later became known as “the wolf of badenoch” who is known for burning down Elgin cathedral amongst other things, you do need a boat or kayak of some sort to get out to the island but it’s a nice place to go even if you don’t have that, from there you can also travel down to aviemore and the Cairngorms which also has some fantastic scenery and places to visit
I'm loving this video you should embrace the terrible pronunciation we love that no one can pronounce our place names try for example Milngavie (mil-ghy) or Ecclefechan
Ryan Shirley always shocks me how it’s hard for people to say Burgh haha. But honestly man really loved the video actually made me wanna head back home. And yeah I’m from Edinburgh :)

The pronunciations in this video is a wild ride 😅 love it lol
so annoying when people say it wrong
No it’s not it’s Ed in burg hahaha. And Glas gee. Or Weggie land 🤣
it's too beautiful. I need to see it to believe it
It really is a magical land 🧙🏻♂️
If you want a night out and some fun, go to Glasgow
I have to go back!
More like if you want to be stabbed lol
I like to thank you for making this video. It makes my future planning to Scotland much easier.
Aye!! I’m so glad I could help :)
Omg, i wish someday I could go there 😭🥰🖤
I hope you can! Where are you from?
@@RyanShirley The seven kingdoms by the looks of it!
I’m Scottish and I don’t know as many places as this guy 😂 you should visit Dunkeld, Perth they have an amazing hotel and amazing activities. It’s all and all a great holiday and worth the money!
Next time! :)
I love the top ten series-I have seriously thought about going to some of these places!! Your videos are super informative
Thanks! I really appreciate it! Got any big travel plans for 2020?
The World Through A Lens Just a rubbish tip. So sad.
With love from Edinburgh
My family came from Kilmarnock. I am not pure scot, because I was born in America, but I can speak Scottish, and I have visited there over 5 times. Erase yér heends fer Scotland!
Marcheski TV I’m from Dundonald which is only a few miles from Kilmarnock.
Haha like other Scots I was correcting pronunciations but it's a good video.
You've missed some really good places but Skye is absolutely stunning. Need a good amount of time up there to do everything.
Edin-bo-ro.... Mkay!!
COME TO FALKIRK!
Graham McKenzie Stunning but the rubbish is disgusting.
Scotland is incredible :) nice shots:)
Such a magical land!
Great vid sir.
Phonetic pronunciation of some of the places named - Edinburra, Glazgo, Holyrude, GlenFinnin.
Thanks man for the help with pronunciations! It was tough! Are you from Scotland?
Yep 👍
Or Glezga if ye bide in Aiberdeen. 😉😂
Loch Limond is where you might find the elusive Limmy. The Limmy is a rare beast, which legend has no business in Yoker.
Is the Limmy like the Loch Ness Monster?
Absolutely love your enthusiasm and love of Scotland. It really is ma magical place. Thanks for posting this.
Thanks Ron! That means a lot! Are you from Scotland?
Ryan Shirley no we live in the US but we’ve visited several times. Last time we took the sleeper train from London to Inverness last year and loved it. Highly recommend it. All the best.
I loved ur passion for my country but had to laugh at the amount of times you apologised in case u'd pronounced areas wrong........but didn't with Edinburgh or Glasgow which you couldn't have pronounced more wrong if ud tried 💙 Edinburgh is pronounced Edin....burrah or Edin...bruh or the toon as we call it here 👍& Glasgow is Glazz...go!
If ur ever in Edinburgh again, I'll give you a tour of the top 10 best pubs, live bands, a pint of tennents & Scottish banter....can't beat it. Fab vid & as I said, ur love of Scotland will always be returned tenfold 🏴🏴 💙 🏴🏴
Thanks Yvonne! I definitely had a hard time with those names but thanks for your kind suggestions and advice! I need them!! And I’ll have to take up your offer when I’m in Edinburgh!!
Glen FEE nan??? Glen FIN an like shark FIN
Glazz GO similar sound for Moscow incidentally , Moss CO
Am American, moved to edinburgh in 1987 and never looked back. Your enthusiasm touches me with nostalgia for the same wonder (and shite pronunciation! :-) I felt when I first arrived. I live on Calton Hill and yet despite being right in the thick of it for many years, frequently I am still awestruck as I walk down Princes Street and look up,to the castle or many of the other eye candies dotted throughout my adopted city and country - still the most beautiful in the world. Thanks.
This is one of my favorite comments I've ever gotten, I think thats so cool you moved there and you understand what its like to see everything for the first time and the difficult translations. I'm jealous you live in Calton hill, its hard to beat the magic of that city.
@@RyanShirley flew in with my motorcycle, landed in prestwick on the west coast. I will never forget that first jaw dropping moment as I entered edinburgh at the west end of princes street and looked up at the castle and gardens. It was like real life Middle Earth…! I live mostly in Prague now, but still have my flat on calton hill; sadly can’t shuttle between the two frequently as I used to thanks to COVID. The Hebrides are my favourite and also I highly recommend the Isle of Man. If u get back to edinburgh give me a shout and can offer the apartment.
this list really help a lot. feels like I'm living in my childhood fantasy!
That makes me so happy! Its a fantastic place!
There’s some great places in Scotland to go to, one which most likely wouldn’t come up in most searches is lochindorb, which is north of grantown, it is a Loch with (a now though to be artificially created) island in it which has the ruins of a castle which used to be the seat of a a man who later became known as “the wolf of badenoch” who is known for burning down Elgin cathedral amongst other things, you do need a boat or kayak of some sort to get out to the island but it’s a nice place to go even if you don’t have that, from there you can also travel down to aviemore and the Cairngorms which also has some fantastic scenery and places to visit
the pronunciations pleaseee man it’s like he didn’t even speak tae a scottish person when he wis here 😭😭😭😭
Scotland. Not scotland. Was not wis.
Anges Mcgill well your not Scottish then
American arrogance
Fantastic video!! Amazing scene at the end on the top of the rock
Thanks Marcus! It was a sketchy rock to climb!
Ryan Shirley you're a braver man than me! Thanks again for the video
‘I didn’t know scotland had just big mountains i thought it was pretty flat’
‘Glasscow’
‘Edinburrow’
🤪
Only the highest mountain on this land mass
Passion and enthusiasm for beautiful landscapes. What's not to like! Well done.
Thanks so much friend! Its hard not to fall in love with scotland! Where are you from?
@@RyanShirley Scotland, originally :-D
Love this video so much but as someone from Scotland it was hard to listen to you pronouncing some of these words 😂😂
Same lisa
Hard for me to listen to that backgound music! Why not some soft Celtic sounds??
@@lynnquillen4813 no thank you, wait do you mean the football team or Keltic music (still spelt celtic just so you can tell what I'm talking about)
@@Kaid2710 ????
@@lynnquillen4813 Celtic is a football team, it has music. Celtic (Pronojnced Keltic) is traditional Scottish things
Amazing shots you got there. Great video
Thanks Calum! Are you from Scotland?
@@RyanShirley yeah. I enjoyed the video
I'm loving this video
you should embrace the terrible pronunciation
we love that no one can pronounce our place names
try for example Milngavie (mil-ghy)
or Ecclefechan
Richard Boyle I live near milngavie, its a ridiculous name to be fair.
A beautiful video Ryan. I loved the vistas you showed and how you described what you saw.
Edinbro😂
@David Scott SBI 🤣👍 its glezgae
Holyrod
School teachers be like:say STOOOOOPPPP IT I don't like it
Lugar cinematográfico!
Es cierto :)
"Edinbro"
Gimme five
Haha yes!
I love this view
EdinBURGH!!!! Not Edinborough!!
Aside from that great video mate!
Fraser McDonald it’s such a hard one for me to pronounce! Thanks though! :) are you from Scotland?
Pretty sure he has it correct in the video. EdinburUH
Ryan Shirley always shocks me how it’s hard for people to say Burgh haha. But honestly man really loved the video actually made me wanna head back home. And yeah I’m from Edinburgh :)
Ezra Friedman lol well I am Scottish so I think I know if it’s said right.
I love Scotland. Such a beautiful place. Greetings from Bulgaria.
It's such a special place! That's awesome you live in Bulgaria! I was there last summer in Varna!
Edinburgh is a city also it’s pronounced ehh din brr uuu h
Close enough, don't say EdinBruh to a scot tho, it'll trigger us.
An' if yir fae Aiberdeen, then it's pronounced Edin-Bra. 😁
@@Kaid2710 oh shut up I’m from Edinburgh
@@mandemt1076 aye. And im from flakirk
Thank you for the video. I love it. So beautiful. After lockdown this is my 1 destination. X
You’re welcome 😊
Omg. You are murdering the names of all the sites. I really recommend you watch some Scotland videos to learn the correct pronuciations. 😜
I definitely screwed them up! My bad. Are you from Scotland?
Ryan Shirley I am from Scotland and you did murder the names but I’m not bothered because you did scotland a service. Great vid
@@RyanShirley who cares if you never pronounced properly man, your not from here so fair play for trying.
Scotland is magical. Thank you for sharing one of our favorite countries to visit.
It truly felt like a scene from a movie! I hope you can visit soon :)
