Well, can't we find it in our hearts to enjoy a glorious mixter-maxter of cultures?
Why is no-one suggesting correct Norse/Scots spellings for road signs where they occur?
Bilingual signs in Norse/Scots and Gaelic would be most appropriate.
Or does the legacy of English as the language of progress and education, that was beaten into our forebears, still rule the roost?...
