  • Central Library Rosemount Viaduct Aberdeen, Scotland, AB25 1GW United Kingdom (map)

Join Dr Clive Young to launch his book Unlocking Scots: The Secret Life of the Scots Language, in Aberdeen, the home of Doric.

The Scots language is the hidden treasure of Scottish culture. For many of us it is still how we speak to each other, how we express our feelings, our humour, even our Scottishness.

Aye, but what exactly is ‘Scots’ anyway? Is it still a language? Was it ever one?  

To answer these and many more questions posed by English and Scots speakers alike, Dr Clive Young sets out to uncover the secret life of Scots.

Copies of the book will be available to purchase on the night.
