The Scottish language is composed of two distinct dialects: ERSE and GAELIC. ERSE, also known as Irish, is a Goidelic language spoken in Ireland and the Scottish Highlands. GAELIC, on the other hand, is a Celtic language spoken in Scotland and the Isle of Man. Both ERSE and GAELIC are closely related to each other and share many similarities in terms of grammar and vocabulary. Both languages have been spoken in Scotland for centuries and are still widely used today.
