>the main argument is that it's how people talk in Scotland
And it's no different than Scottish English at all, how is that an argument? why is American not its own language but Scots is?

>wikipedia
My main source of Scots is the novel trainspotting that I read four years ago, written entirely in Scots, which is terrible by the way. It's just poorly spelled English. There is not one construction unique to Scots in that whole terrible book. Shouldn't be called a different language. Anyway, I don't know why you don't believe that somebody else could possibly know what Scots is and assume that they must be using Wikipedia.

Seriously, if you're gonna call Scots a language I'm calling AAVE a separate language from now on.
