The best thing about Scots is the extensive range of insults.

I'm still partial to "face like a skelped arse" and "get it up ye". 😂

My gran had a less offensive version of this to describe someone with a reddish complexion. She would say that a person "had a face like a stalk of last year's rhubarb".

I’m an American of Scottish heritage, my family came (were exiled) to Boston just before the Rovolutionary War, then joined the Continental Marines when it all kicked off. From the first time I heard it, the Scottish accent sang to my soul. These insults are awesome, and I would start using them immediately, if any of my American friends would have any idea of what I was talking about. lol

My favourite is “Yer bum’s oot the windae”

One of my Commanding Officers was a Scott born and raised. This guy was our Regimental Commander so we really listened when he spoke, problem was we couldn’t understand a single word he’d say. We would be in formation and he would dismiss us for the weekend and we wouldn’t move, so the first couple times that happened he thought we were messing with him so he asked on of the Majors if the unit was full of “eejit”. The only thing the major said was Aww, Uaa, Sir? The entire time all of us are just shifting looks at each other, like what language is that, sounded like a bunch of rrrrrs, birttt, buurrr, he turned out to be one the most inspirational leaders I served with, well, when I wasn’t being an eejit.

Being Scottish I always laugh when I'm getting my messages and I see the cleaning products 'minky' 🤣🤣🤣 contradiction...

Ive not lived in Scotland for a while, but I can’t believe you missed my favourite with the accent: “away and bile yer heid”. :)

lol this video could have been called, "my favourite Scottish words that mean 'idiot'". Glaikit is definitely one of my favourites.

Great insult video. I noticed that most of yet favorite of insults are some variation of idiot. My favorite is grabbit and bawbag. I've actually been using some of them.

I'm Australian. My grandparents were Scottish. My grandfather used to at times use the word "duffer" to describe someone who had done somethin silly. My grandfather was born before 1910 so the word "duffer" would most likely be a wee bit outdated now.

Love yer maw...for makin you! Best to ya love.

"ya maw's a welder" 😂😂😂😂 love it! 👌

Congratulations on 50k and Yeh the first one is the best insult 😂😂

Dobber is one of my favourites.

I am from Northern Ireland and have Scottish ancestry. Some Scots dialect is used here. One of my favourite words is "sleekit" to mean sneaky or devious. My Granda also used to use "galoot" to mean idiot.

Haha too funny and love the outtakes too. Nothing insulting about 50,000 subs!! CHEERS!!

Love your facial expressions they crack me up.. one of my favorite insults is calling people a jackass!! When they do stupid things especially driving... Your friend in Clearwater Florida 😎

HaHa! "Yer maw wears a denim trackie!!" A new one for my arsenal. Some classics in there and one that recently came home from the wee one's school... "you've a face like a Ford Fiesta"??? Apparently it means it's all over the place like the front of the new Fiesta HaHa! Who knew?

I go over to the celtic matches, and once when I was in one of the bars beforehand I heard a fella call his mate a "scheme dug", hahaha love it

I like the Nightmare glove hanging on the knob, you're my kind of sick girl.

I am over on the east side of Scotland, Angus, here a common term for idiot it 'neep'. Need also means turnip. He's a richt neep. But we also have the same insults that you have just mentioned.

Och, Erin! You're wonderful!

My favourite Is bawbag, definetely. If you are a South American person the translation Is "saco 'e weas" (faithful translation of a half Scottish guy).

Oh my God I simply love this accent. I was planning to study English there in Scotland. I got a better deal for England, (un)fortunately, though. At least I'll be able to go there. Subscribed (long time ago).

I'm from Australia but have Scottish in me and have relatives there. It's my spiritual home! My all time favorite is calling people numptys or eejits. Thanks for the video!

I just love whatever you teach 😘

At work, I use "numpty". I love that word. LOL. Also, I use the Irish words "langer" and "gobshite" along the with the aforementioned. Being from the states, no one knows what i'm talking about.

I studied in Edinburgh back in 2015. Wonderful country. I have to wonder how many times these insults were used against me and it just flew over my head.

I have a scots character in my web comic. thanks for the help with his bad education . most useful.

Very helpful Thanks

Thanks for the video especially for having the spelling in the description right now I'm playing an RPG game and a forum and my character is a Scottish punk from Glasgow who is held at the point of the sword by a Japanese Yakuza ninja warrior (its a superhero game in the style of CW "Arrow "or "Flash") his being used hostage to force the other players to help the Yakuza escape. After trying to get free and falling I cobbled up this flowery sentence thanks to your video and some comments "Yer Bawbag! get ye butter knifer in Yer Eejit Numpty Mink Fud! Ye Crabbit Tub Yer!" its still pretty mild because its mostly stress/pain relief he dos not want to attack his family or get into harder curse words but does not want to provoke the Yakuza too much a middle ground :D I will post a hyperlink to the video in my post so that you will get some more views thanks for the content

Oh man you make me laugh. Fud had me spitting my coffee everywhere.

I find myself saying "away and take yer face fur a shite" 🤣 I love being Scottish. Congrats on the 50K huni xx

I learned all my current Scottish insults from the Glenncannon omnibus so it's nice to update!

As they explained in _A Fish Called Wanda,_ the London Underground is _not_ a _resistance movement._

My faves are definitely eejit/idjet since I have been using it my entire life. And bawbag is funny I can see myself using it gaming. Lol

Saying smell yer maw while you're pointing at your elbow is a good one. As is besom.

I just fell in love.

Omg are you doing that Messyformind challenge the gunging thing that Kirstie nominated you for?😂😂xxx

We use numpty a lot in Australia

tinker also which means dirty but I do believe it came from a time where leproacy or leopards. sounds like cheetahs but people with lepor disease had to walk with bells to warn people they were coming which was sad but it was a great way to overcome akward situations.. :)
