3 out of 5. Not bad for someone who doesn't understand a word of Scottish when it's being spoken to me!

Thanks for that Niven. Only got 3, 3 then 5 (I would know a richt guid williewaught!)

Don't worry if you didn't do well. Most of these words are little known these days, and

even though I know my Burns, some of them maybe from the East coast or siclike.
