Scots dictionaries
I'm not aware of an Oxford Scots Dictionary. I have the 'Concise Scots Dictionary' from the Scottish National Dictionary Association. It's the best in one volume I can find. Alas my budget doesn't stretch to the multi-volume one, and for most practical purposes, as a writer, the 'Concise' serves me well. But I don't speak Scots from a dictionary: it's my native tongue.
I wish there was an OSD.
