In Aberdeenshire the local dialect is Doric. We moved in here 40 years ago. After about 10 years we found out that Doric was not a specific dialect but something that changed from one village to another.
Further that a lot of the locals made it up as they went along. We understand most of the locals these days.
As we have been here now for 40 years and there are not a vast number of locals left as the younger locals have moved away, we are considered part of the community an honour indeed for a pair of "inabootcumers"
