Gerard Butler Teaches You Scottish Slang | Vanity Fair

❤😂

Except it’s not slang. It’s Scot’s which is a recognised language. Did Burns write in slang ?

I liked you as the phantom. I especially liked your chest.

He reminds me of Captain Haddock in Tintin

It's not "slang" FFS, it's an actual language. Calling Scots a slang version of English is like calling Norwegian a slang version of Swedish or Spanish a slang version of Italian.

Mince and tatties!? Hook it up. 😂

I can relate with this video. He is truly Scottish

Gerald Butler and Jamie Dornan having a go so now stop faffin about

as a scot a love the scots accents and many o the auld words that rarely used in scotland now. would never swap it for any other accent.

The amount of charisma he has is through the roof.

It is not slang, it's Scots which is as legitimate language as English .

SCOTLAND FOREVER

SCOTLAND FOREVERRRR

¡¡¡SCOTLAND FOREVER!!!

Turpentine? What is wrong with you? 😂

"Wee bit" is common here in the US as is "rank" (mostly to do with bad smells, though).

I wish Gerard could be my leprechaun. He'd be sore for days. ;)

I have to say here that to me Sean Connary always sounded to me like his dentures were loose

Sometimes i actually understand

In Jamaica, we call a fire fly a "peeny-wally". There are Scottish descendants in Jamaica.

the ipad looks like a phone in his hands😂

Here I thought Australian lingo was bloody weird. FAIR DINKUM GET THAT IN YA MATE! Scottish is just as bad lmao. Love it.

Auch, awa 'n bile yer heid!

Kicking a guy intae a big hole, "Sparta Young Team yaaaaa baaaaaaaas"

The Irish are the friendly drunks. The Scots are the angry drunks. They're the only group of people who have a hard liquor named after them. Yet they still produced genius like David Hume and Andrew Carnegie

So, your saying that Scottish slang originated with teenage boys, and is now used by everyone?

never seen this side of gerard before. love it! so funny! I wish he did more funny silly characters. I actually demand a full movie of him being such a bundle of fun and scottish af, maybe a scottish drunk version of Popeye!!

I am familiar with some of these expressions! Love listening to him say them with his accent!

Some of these words and phrases like 'Ah dinnae ken' aren't 'slang'. They are words and phrases in the Scots language. Calling them slang isn't very respectful to the folk still speaking the language of Burns despite facing prejudice and discrimination and sometimes having been beaten by teachers just because they were speaking their mother tongue (many people who went to school before the 80s). It's incredible how, if you tell a people their language is worthless and not even a language but slang or uneducated speech for long enough, they start to believe those negative things and perpetuate them themselves.

Thank you for sharing!

It's amazing, listening to this, to think what a great singer he is.

Thank you, Gerry! Now I know where I get my sarcasm genes.

"Haud yer wheesht! I'm as Scottish as shortbread in a tartan tin, sir!" 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🦄‼️

I’m shook because I just found out Gerard is big Scottish

glad im not the only one casually picking up turpentine while grocery shopping

After months of practice, I've finally managed to use these expressions in my daily life. Unfortunately, nobody understands me when I use them.
The fact that I live in France probably explains why.

He expain its in scottish too is he?cause i barely understand😂

Love it 😊😊

Nah these arent all just scottish slang..? Bacci, trolley and bevvy aren't all just scottish are they?

Hogmanay? Is that only scottish?

Ok one we use, rank 🤣😭

I can listen to anything he says 😂

Purple burglar alarm

I could watch this a thousand times LOL

I like how half of the slang/Gerard's explanations are associated to being drunk. Truly Scottish indeed, 10/10.
