Big Al 55 9,252 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 To be fair It had to be translated from Scouse to Scottish by someone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More Bollocks reporting from the Daily Rebel. That said, I sincerely doubt that SG actually wrote the statement in any case, he's got better things to do. That’s some commute you’ve got there, mate!

Colin Traive 22,777 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Was once the token Scottish person in a company meeting and I used two words which London based colleagues said they’d never heard before. The words were “outwith” and “swithering” as in “unable to decide”. Had to explain both. Incidentally, my iPad tries autocorrecting both words as it doesn’t recognise them. That statement may well have been approved by Gerrard but it was written by a Scot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outwith the regular dictionary definition results, and discussions about the word, if you then scroll through the hundreds of pages of google results of pages which simply use the word in their normal discourse, you will see that virtually all of the results are from Scottish based organisations. Particularly Local Authorities. Yes, there are a handful of exceptions, but on closer examination, you will often find a Scottish connection somewhere (Maybe a Scottish educated content-writer?) Many English speakers may have come across it before, or are able to work it out, but they would be very unlikely to choose it in preference to outside or beyond. Shame Traynor didn't know that.

WATP-FOREVER 5,231 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Great intent - is 'outwith' a scouse term.
