    About this ebook

    Do you know your AAR from your ELBOCK?

    If the media reported that there were a large number of CRINKIE-WINKIES in both the House of Commons and the House of Lords, would you be inclined to agree?

    The Scots language is rich with words spoken by the vulgar (common) people in the 19th century, many of which have become obsolete over time.

    Here is a humorous wee quiz to test your knowledge of good old Scots words, many of which are of an insulting nature, and some which sound rude, and sometimes are.

    One word. Two definitions. Can you identify the correct one?

    Go on, get together, have a laugh, and improve your vocabulary.
