GLOSSARY.

The ch and gh have always the guttural sound. The sound of the English diphthong oo is commonly spelt ou. The French u, a sound which often occurs in the Scottish language, is marked oo or ui. The a in genuine Scottish words except when forming a diphthong, or followed by an e mute after a single con Bonant, sounds generally like the broad English a in father. The Scottish diphthong ae always, and ea very often, sound like the French e masculine. The Scottish diphthong ey sounds like the Latin ei.
