What's wrong with 'inwith'?

I wasn't being snarky. I like it when you use those kinds of words.

No worries Craig, as things are developing just now I'd far rather characterise my English as Scottish English
than 'British' English (which means something spoken in the southern urban centres of England).

Oddly enough, in my 3 years at Carbondale in Illinois, I felt a lot more comfortable with the English there than
when I go to visit my Mother in south-west England (especially as she and friends do not speak "Zummerzet" or "Darset":
that is to say, the Saxon heavily influenced by the Vikings coming up the Severn and intil the Zomerzet levels).

Although I would also be careful to make a point that when I am speaking/writing in English (however informed
by Scots that might be) I am not speaking Scots, and the reverse, even if my Scots is an unco dialeck midst Orcadian,
Buchan, Angus and Galloviadian (which is unchancy since my Scots howf is in Fife).

"howf"

So is that the old English "s", and so, "house"?

Craig

No, it is not.
