Charles Kennedy

I happen to consider myself a Highlander even before a Scot; I am proud to be British yet feel comfortable as a European citizen.

British Politician

That's how I got my name, you know. The Bonny scot, see?

The term is rarely used today and may sound outdated.

Originally referred to a medieval tax; helps grasp the historical notion.

Used in phrases like 'scot-free' to imply escaping without punishment.

Scot emphasizes one's origin from Scotland, often with pride.

Use the term respectfully, as it relates to national identity.

Remember, 'Scot' referring to a person should always be capitalized.
