  • Escocia se ha caracterizado a lo largo de la historia por su diversidad cultural y lingüística. Las lenguas habladas en la actualidad o en el pasado en Escocia se dividen en dos familias: lenguas celtas y lenguas germánicas. El inglés de Escocia es la lengua oficial, aunque otras dos, el escocés y el gaélico escocés también tienen reconocimiento cooficial. (es)

  • Les diverses influences ayant baigné l'Écosse se traduisent également dans une pluralité de langues. Deux sont officielles, l'anglais et le gaélique écossais. Cette dernière, langue traditionnelle aujourd'hui minoritaire, a très largement perdu sa place face à l'anglais écossais, variété régionale de l'anglais moderne. Le scots, langue germanique proche de l'anglais, est l'idiome régional des Lowlands, au sud du pays ; l'écrivain Robert Burns l'a largement utilisé dans ses œuvres. (fr)
