- I dont doubt that its a waste of time to actually try and reason with you but anyway il try. Gaelic was spoken in the Lowlands entire although only by a limited section (mostly ruling class) of society in the extreme south-east and for a comparatively limited period of time. Most of Caithness was Gaelic speaking with only the northernmost tip having been successively Norse and then English speaking. If you are acting out of innocent ignorance rather than determined bigotry i would point you towards the book "Scottish Place Names" by Nicolaisen which covers all the historic place names and types of place names found in Scotland with seperate chapters dealing with those of Gaelic, English and Norse origin. There are maps for each kind of place name which show the distribution of each specific place name throughout Scotland. Funnily enough the great majority of Gaelic place names are found in the Lowlands and especially the eastcoast. Caithness, extreme northern tip aside, is also comfortably endowed with them. siarach 18:48, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
