The term 'Wally Close' is one you'll commonly hear in Glasgow. It refers to the communal stairwell of a tenement building, known as a Close, which has been lined with decorative ceramic tiles. Cont./ #glasgow #tenement #tiles #tiling #wallyclose #scotswords #architecture

Scots animal of the week is a tod or male fox. A todhunter is a foxhunter, and children could be found playing "hunt the tod" or hide and seek. A less well-known and equally lovely term is "tod mittans" or the foxglove. #ScotsWords #HooletHoots

Some children from P7 and P4 worked together to try out our new den building kit. We enjoyed building the den and then explore some traditional Scots words and what they mean in English. Some favourites were bahookie, tottie, shoogle and dreich.' #outdoorlearning #Scotswords

Scots word of the week is hairy oobit, or a caterpillar 🐛 Its wee legs power away underneath, as it heads determinedly in the direction it wants to go. #ScotsWords #HooletHoots

This week’s #scottishwordoftheweek is SHOOGLY (adj.): Shaky, wobbly or unsteady. Having your jacket 'on a shoogly peg' means you're in danger of getting fired (ex.: "The incumbent president's jaicket's on a shoogly peg"). #scots #scotslanguage #scotswords #scotswordoftheweek
