How many Scottish words do you know? Take our quiz to find out

It's fair to say Scottish dialect can leave the rest of the English-speaking world scratching their heads.

And we're proud of our disposition for some of our words you're less likely to find in the Oxford English Dictionary.

Whether you're spending your Saturday night having a blether with your pals on Zoom,  whipping up some scran, ironing your breeks, or getting blootered in lockdown, your plans will probably leave plenty of people baffled.

But just how many Scots words do you know?

Take our test to find out.

So, how did you get on? Are you a pro or will we be revoking your Scottish badge?
