It’s beautiful. I feel like I can nearly understand enough to read it.
Now that I’ve gone back and listened to Stephen Fry’s audiobooks after being a Jim Dale kid, I kinda wanna read the whole thing in Scottish. I’m sure I’ll remember nearly everything well enough.
Is this closer to how Old English was or is this even farther removed from Old English than Modern English is?
It’s a bit like Middle English (what Shakespeare wrote in), Old English (What Beowulf was wrote in) is very different. Also worth remembering that this is Scots, which is very close to English and I think largely unrelated to Scottish Gaelic.
