• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    Question about cultures

    The word 'kirk' is a poor example???? I've used the word 'kirk'! My mother uses the word 'kirk' to refer to the church building. It is a word used in SSE. That's complete shite. I'm willing to concede that people believe Scots was a proper language, but it is no longer spoken. I don't even...

    Question about cultures

    ... I live in the Lowlands. Any part of Scotland that isn't in the Highlands is part of the Lowlands? I don't speak that way. Even old people really don't speak that way. Who are these exceptional people who speak hard Scots? If it's a language, it's dead. It exists almost solely in the form of...

    Question about cultures

    Devo max is a good idea, isn't it? It's a shame we weren't allowed to put that option on the independence referendum because the UK government thought it would be 'too complicated'. More like 'you're more likely to vote for that and we don't want you to, nyeh'. It was very annoying! I don't...

    Question about cultures

    I suppose that's true that mainstream language classes don't really teach language effectively, but I don't think most mainstream education classes teach anything particularly well, either! But I'll concede you on that point; you can't really strong-arm a nation into speaking a language most of...

    Question about cultures

    Gaelic isn't a 'dead' language! I can't speak for Irish Gaelic (but I'm certainly under the impression that it's more widely-spoken than Scottish Gaelic), but there are ~60, 000 native speakers of Scottish Gaelic living in Scotland. It's small, but it's not dead by any means! The problem is...

    Holiday wishlists?

    Every year I ask for a real fluffy animal. Every year I am disappointed. :C I dunno, though! I'd like more games for the PS3, because I'm slow and only got one like two months ago. Or a satchel from the Cambridge Satchel Company, even though they're like, £145 each and it's just not going to...

    You know you've been at TCoD too long when

    I wasn't! You're just choosing to interpret what I said incorrectly, so I gave up!!

    ODT isn't an 'obscure format'. turnitin (electronic submission for university assignments) takes it without complaint! so does ff.net, even. it's just silly people who have borin' ol' word who can't take it. and i mean you can just save it as a .doc or .docx file anyway.
