Comments: SCOTS DICTIONARIES ONLINE.

Thanks for the link. How wonderfully useful. I had no idea it was available. I do have access to a copy of the DOST at the Dictionary of Old English project, but unfortunatly not the later volumes. It's surprising how much Old English vocabulary crops up in the DOST. The DOE regularly cross-references to the DOST for this reason. This is an invaluable online resource.

Yes, thanks from me, too. It's particularly useful for comparison with northern English dialects which have absorbed some of the terms listed.
