Nobody said it was a Scottish thing. OP asked why it was still taught that way in Scotland. In my first reply I said “I’m not saying the Jy sound comes from Scots…”

There’s no perceived anti-Scot’s linguistic bias either. There’s tons of information out there on it if you wanted to learn about it. I brought it up as a different issue around why I have a chip on my shoulder about this kinda thing. For someone who involved themselves in a discussion about language, you just don’t seem to read very well.

I don’t think it’s SUPPOSED to be pronounced any way. Language is fluid. Kinda part of my point. I think using demised in that context is a bit wanky for instance, you think it’s fine. Each to their own.
