One of the things I'm occasionally sad about is that it's very hard to read Doric out loud.
Doric is a very hard thing for me to consciously reach for. When I speak to another Doric speaker it unlocks as my husband can attest to.
It was my mither tounge. It was the conversation I had with my Grannie.
I lost it because in primary school we were told we were nae spiking proper English.
It was the comfort of hame. Even now when I come across it, there's emotion that someone still spiks it.

@onepict@chaos.social As far as I'm concerned Doric is a fine language for someone to use, honestly. I can read most of it as well as I can read English and I'm Dutch. My partner can't understand a single word, though. XD
