Alang wi the ither North Germanic leids, Swaddish is an affcome oAuld Norse, the common leid o theGermanic fowk bidin in Scandinavie durin theViking Age. The letters that exist in Swadish an nae in Scots (even tho' "ä" exists inUlster Scots) are: å, ä an ö.
The Swaddish as it wis spoken in the Mid-Ages wis gey different frae modren Swaddish. The grammar is muckle different, mair nor the pronouciaition that didna chynge the muckle : thar wis fower cases for adjectives, nouns an pronouns:nominative,dative,accusative angenitive. (The farst an the last dae exist till the day). Thar war three genders:masculine,wummanly anneuter.Theutrum is the gender o the day that contains baithmasculine anwummanly. The conjugaition wis mair complex an aw, haeinindicative ansubjonctive an the verb chyngin at ivery person an number. The XVIth yeirhunder an the like, the leid haes become gey simpler in a pure grammatical owersicht, it wis mair like the the day's Swaddish. Till the XVIIth yeirhunder the cases war stil uisit, but nou bide anly in some rare dialects.
