Early forms

The Scottish language (Scottish: Scottis leid /skɔts ɫid/), is one of two official languages of the United Kingdom of Scotland and Ireland. Despite the name, it is spoken natively in both constituent countries. It is closely related to the English language spoken in the Kingdom of England. Although Scottish is a West Germanic language, it is in a sprachbund with the Western group of the North Germanic languages (comprising Icelandic, Faroese and Norwegian) and has evolved somewhat convergently with them.

Lord's Prayer
Wor Faiðer, sae ert in Hemin,
haillad wus þyn Name.
Þyn Kinrick com,
þyn Will schae,
sae in Hemin, sae in Earth.
Gi us ideȝ wor deȝliȝ Breid,
an forgi us wor Schold,
liksae wi forgi wor Scholders,
and nae lede us intil Forseekind,
but free us frae evil.
For at þyn er þe Kinrick,
and þe Micht and þe Glorie,
for ever and ever.
Amen.
