What is the language for Scotland?

Scotland's official languages are Scots and English.

Scots is a Germanic language that is closely related to English. It has been spoken in Scotland for over a thousand years and has its roots in the language spoken by the Angles, who were one of the Germanic tribes that settled in Britain in the 5th and 6th centuries AD. Scots is not a dialect of English, but it is a distinct language with its own grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation.

The majority of people in Scotland speak English, and Scots is mainly used in informal settings, such as in the home and in conversation. However, Scots is still widely recognized and used in literature, poetry, music, and theater. There is also a growing movement to promote and preserve Scots and to increase its use in education and in the media.
