    Interesting how Celtic and Latin form a subgroup of Indo-European.

    I was reading how the jury is out, among linguists, as to whether certain words were originally Latin and borrowed by the early Celts, or the other way round, due to the languages getting more similar the further one goes back.

    One such word was "car".

    Anyhow here's the weather in Scots

    Well that weather forecast is so corny it's just ridiculous.
    You might fancy this in Doric where at least the accent is right.

    Oh I know, I was just being silly. I should have put a little happy face there...

    An unexpectedly good job of presenting the weather - better than some of the blond models we get occasionally.
