Modern Scots
ROBERT McCOLL MILLAR
This book offers a fascinating, carefully-developed and thought-provoking account of Scots
and its uses by a leading authority on the subject. It draws upon a lifetime of work in the field,
and in a number of places - a rather special and in my view valuable feature - on the author s
own personal experience. I recommend it without hesitation.
Jeremy Smith, University of Glasgow
An overview of the structure, use and diversity of Modern Scots
This textbook offers a practical survey of Modern Scots making this an essential resource,
aptly structured for use on Modern Scots and modern varieties of English modules. Robert
McColl Millar guides students through an engaging description and analysis of Modern Scots,
covering its present lexical, phonological and structural patterns while also presenting evidence
for its diversity through illustrations from his broad experience. Each chapter concludes with
a series of exercises to complete and issues to discuss, encouraging active engagement and
development of skill and knowledge in relation to the subject matter.
Key Features
• A new description and analysis of the structure and use of Modern Scots
• Leads students through often complex material while also mapping out the similarities and
large-scale patterns in a clear and accessible way
• A chapter devoted to resources and methods introduces students to the various resources
available online and in print form - corpora, atlases, dictionaries - and how to use them
effectively in the study of Modern Scots
• Exercises and guided suggestions for further reading
