Re: conversation between the english and the scottish
Aye, I understood fine apart from the one thing thing I asked you to repeat. You have to understand that the majority of the 'Cornish' folk way down here talk as fast as you . The Cornish are Celts after all.schuette wrote:I'll let Ogg tell you if he understood me

Yep, it was nice to finally have a 'real' conversation after corresponding for more than four years the now.
I enjoyed talking to Caelan of course although I still think I'd whup his butt in a light-sabre duel . He made me chuckle when he said his light-sabre is capable of turning into either red (dark side) or blue (jedi) and that he'll choose the dark side in a duel

A while ago I was in the lobby of my lawyer's office and another client, a Scotsman, came in to tell them they'd spelled a name wrong on a document. A piece of the conversation between him and receptionist went something like this...
Rec: We spelled his name wrong?
SM: Aye...
Rec: Oh, it's spelled with an "I"?
SM: No... aye means yes...
I just sat there and grinned.

Aren't you the guy who hit me in the eye?

Since I was a child I have thought that "aye" was commonly known as meaning yes, but then, I read.ElfDude wrote:A while ago I was in the lobby of my lawyer's office and another client, a Scotsman, came in to tell them they'd spelled a name wrong on a document.
