    Several of our shows are in what can only be called "Broad Doric" -
    I think that it'll be a while before software can handle that -
    humans have enough difficulty!! If OfCom ever ask for a recording,
    we'll probably have to provide a translator....!!

    A guy in Espionage won’t call you a beautiful woman. He’ll check you
    out, order you a Jägerbomb, and call you a “bonnie haddie.”

    Yes, haddie. As in haddock. As in the fish that goes in a fish
    supper. Classic loon.

    A Dons fan won’t be mortally embarrassed if Aberdeen lose to Buckie
    Thistle, but he will be “black affrontit.”

    Can’t blame him.

    When you know you know someone, but you just can’t put your finger
    on where you know them from, there’s only one thing worth saying: “A
    ken a ken im, but a da ken far a ken im fae.”

    Ken?

    The bonnie haddies in the Priory haven’t slapped on too much
    make-up. They’ve absolutely “clarted” it on.

    But what’s a quine to do when she’d otherwise be described as having
    the following?

    A face like a weet dish-cloot

    A face like a skelpit airse

    A face that wid soor milk

    A quine doing the ‘walk of shame’ down Union Street at 11am on a
    Sunday isn’t an unkempt person. She’s a “hallyrackit craiter.”

    What a girl!

    Your pal isn’t asking you for a piece of chuddy halfway up Bennachie
    when she says, “Hing on a minty.”

    She’s saying, “Wait for me!”

    Hanging out in Schuh on a Saturday afternoon, you won’t hear anyone
    say, “Which foot fits which foot?”

    But you will hear “Fit fit fits fit fit?”

    After getting “drookit” (drenched) in the rain on what was meant to
    be a nice day out to Dunnottar Castle, you don’t exclaim that you’re
    totally knackered.

    You say, “Am fair forfechan!”

    After a heavy sesh at Aberdeen Sports Village, you don’t have sweaty
    armpits.

    You “ave minky oxters.”

    and so on.... :-)

        Hmm…
            I wonder how many stations would relish the thought of such
            equipment falling into Ofcom’s hands!

        Of
            course, even quite polished verbal presentation can seem
            pretty gibberish when written down verbatim – one reason
            Hansard is so heavily subedited before publication!

          What
              a good idea - self-critiquing in your own time!
            All we
              need now is a versatile piece of Voice Recognition
              software that will produce a Word .doc of speech from "Mic
              Live" operation.

              We've
                  always advocated listening off air as the one way to
                  ensure that what you're broadcasting is as it should
                  be.

                Our presenters also have their own website, one feature
                of which is that they can listen to the ROT recordings
                at their leisure for self critical appraisal or when
                someone says "Did you hear what you said last night?" or
                "Please don't talk if you're not in front of an open
                mic"

                Amazingly, quite a few do actually use the feature!
