Excerpt from Scandinavian Influence on Southern Lowland Scotch, Vol. 1: A Contribution to the Study of Linguistic Relation of English and Scandinavian This work aims primarily at giving a list of Scandinavian loan words found in Scottish literature. The publications of the Scottish Text Society and Scotch works published by the Early English Text Society have been examined. To these have been added a number of other works to which I had access, principally Middle Scotch. Some words have been taken from works more recent Mansie Wauch by James Moir, Johnnie Gibb by William Alexander, Isaiah and The Psalms by P. Hately Waddell - partly to illustrate New Scotch forms, but also because they help to show the dialectal provenience of loanwords. Norse elements in the Northern dialects of Lowland Scotch, those of Caithness and Insular Scotland, are not represented in this work. My list of loanwords is probably far from complete. A few early Scottish texts I have not been able to examine. These as well as the large number of vernacular writings of the last I 50 years will have to be examined before anything like completeness can be arrived at.
