Western Scots Norse ([[w:endonym|endonym]]: ''{{lang|snon|{{term|Veastèghsc}}}}''; /ˌvɛst.ˈejʃc/) is ~~spoken~~ throughout the {{lang|snon|{{term|~~Veastèghiar~~}}}}, or the Outer Hebrides. It has the heavier influence of the two ~~dialect groups~~ from [[w:Scots Gaelic|Gàidhlig]].

Western Scots Norse ([[w:endonym|endonym]]: ''{{lang|snon|{{term|Veastèghsc}}}}''; /ˌvɛst.ˈejʃc/) is the dialect continuum used throughout the {{lang|snon|{{term|Veastèghar}}}}, or the Outer Hebrides. It has the heavier influence of the two continuums from [[w:Scots Gaelic|Gàidhlig]], this can be seen largely through vocab. It is one of two main [[w:dialect|dialect]] continuums, the other being [[Eastern Scots Norse]], corresponding to the Inner and Outer Hebrides. Western Scots Norse is further divided into two groups, {{lang|snon|{{term|Noveastèghsc}}}} and {{lang|snon|{{term|Suveastèghsc}}}}, or ''Northwestern'' and ''Southwestern'' respectively. These too are then further divided into the specific dialects. Under Northwestern is {{lang|snon|{{term|Leòdhaesc}}}} and {{lang|snon|{{term|Hearadhsc}}}}, or ''Lewis'' and ''Harris'', while Southwestern is split between {{lang|snon|{{term|Ìvistèghsc}}}} and {{lang|snon|{{term|Barèghsc}}}}, or ''Uist'' and ''Barra''. Within Ìvistèghsc there is also the primary religious dialect, {{lang|snon|{{term|Hèdhnarsc}}}}, spoken by the pagans throughout the Outer Hebrides.
