For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I would have to take a wee bit of issue here. Lallans is a dialect of Scots rather than a dialect of English. It is more akin to anglo-saxon than english. I don't have too much time right now to write more now (dashing out to a meeting) but Wikipedia has a fairly concise wee definition of the Scots language. I am more familiar with Braid Scots than the Lallans although I never find it too difficult to read or understand Lallans.
