scotland

I always found Scotland interesting. I remember meeting friends of the family who lived in Scotland. I always thought of people from Scotland wearing those “skirts” and playing bagpipes. After learning more about the culture and talking to my two new friends from Scotland, I find the culture even more fascinating.

In Scotland the major language is English. In some parts of Scotland Gaelic is spoken. Gaelic has many similarities to the Celtic languages.

They replied that they had only seen them at fairs, dance competitions, or at the Highland Games. They do have many different things about them though. Well that seemed to answer my question and silence by ideas.
