"Ye hav a point cheil...hmmm...perhaps mah native Sassenach is a bit heavy fur th' common ear. Ahh'll see whit Ahh can dae. Ahh hav several colonists on-boards, mebbe they can school me! But in th' meantime...it might help tae knows -

Thes dialect can be either very heavy ur very delicate, dependin' oan whit is appropriate fur th' person. Th' trick fur thes dialect is tae imagine 'att ye hav a rag in yer mouth! Th' mouth is held mair openly than in, say, upper-class Sassenach. Ye can think ay th' soond as bein' generated either above th' back ay th' tongue ur in th' space immediately above th' back-most part ay th' tongue. Thaur, 'att shoods explain it nicely!

Ay coorse Ahh learned aw thes in mah childhood, playin' wi' mah friends in Elgol, a puckle sword fights an' a lot ay fishin' aff th' coast ay th' islain ay Rum!" 😄- Keptin
