The Real Voices of Scotland In Verse and Prose

G.K. McGilvary

4.9/5 (27458 ratings)

Description:These stories and poems are based on real life in Caledonia. They indicate what you will find when visiting us. No attempt is made, however, to represent the Gaelic tongue; too vast a subject. The multi-faceted quality of Scottish life is shown through her language and the tales evoked. It is worth remembering, however, that where a particular tongue is dominant in one particular area of Scotland, it is by no means the only one present. What you hear is the lilt the Highland tongue gives to received English; the gutteral sound Lallans gives to both Scottish and English words and phrases; and the Doric tongue of the North-East is so unique, it must be said that it almost requires a dictionary of its own to understand.The intention is to let you hear the people at work and play through these poems and stories—and hopefully, they will also be enjoyed for what they are; some of them may even make you smile. The various pieces also convey messages that are worth seeking out. Enjoy.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
