We’ve got a bunch and the ones that annoy the weans, like calling Jalapeños Jalpaneros in public, are our favourites.

But…as a Scottish person that’s how we pronounce salad and chocolate!

My wife (from the highlands) is constantly ripping my central belt accent. Like all the fucken time. She finds it awfully hilarious for a Teuchter. Not got a leg to stand on that lot! Her favourites are how I pronounce milk (mulk - I used to get a cuff round the ear from my maw for that, so I kept using it out of spite) and beard (baird apparently it sounds like).
