Scottish-Labeled Replacer with Every Rule Disclosed

Verified Scottish-Labeled Replacement Examples
Each sample is produced by the current local function and shows phrase ordering, whole-word matching, case normalization, or unchanged context.
English
You are going to your little house.
Translation
ye're going tae yer wee house.
Four forward rules applied while the rest of the sentence stays intact
English
Yes, you cannot go about it.
Translation
aye, ye cannae go aboot it.
Yes, you, cannot, and about replaced in order
English
No, don't do that.
Translation
nae, dinnae do that.
No and the contraction don't changed without altering punctuation
English
You and your friend
Translation
ye and yer friend
You and your changed while friend remains outside the rule list
English
I can't go soon.
Translation
I cannae go soon.
Can't maps to cannae while soon receives no replacement
English
About your little plan
Translation
aboot yer wee plan
Capitalized About and two later targets produce lowercase stored forms
Understand the Mapping Before Using the Draft
| Source Group | Stored Results | Important Limit |
|---|---|---|
| you are / your / you | ye're / yer / ye | Order matters |
| yes / no / don't | aye / nae / dinnae | Case is not retained |
| cannot / can't | cannae / cannae | Sources converge |
| little / about / to | wee / aboot / tae | Whole words only |
Forward Rule Groups
All source patterns are grouped here to make the implementation auditable.
Round-Trip Risk Table
Reverse mode is useful for inspection but should not be treated as proof of the original sentence.
| Forward Result | Reverse Choice | Lost Detail |
|---|---|---|
| ye're | you're | you are wording |
| cannae | cannot | can't distinction |
| aye | yes | whether aye was original |
Appropriate Ways to Examine the Replacement Logic
Build a Round-Trip Test
Use you are, cannot, and can't in separate samples, then compare the reverse outputs. This makes non-invertible mappings visible without presenting them as language expertise.
Check Whole-Word Boundaries
Place you beside young or about beside whereabouts to see that longer words are not partially rewritten. Boundary protection is a code feature, not semantic understanding.
Audit a Fiction Draft Mechanically
If you use one substitution in an original fictional line, review it manually for clarity and characterization. A tiny rule list cannot supply research or an authentic voice.
Compare with Reliable Language Sources
For actual Scots language or regional usage, use sources created by relevant speakers, educators, or linguistic institutions. This page's eleven rules are not a substitute for that work.
Implemented Scottish-Labeled Rule Boundaries
The route offers a compact text experiment with known ambiguities, not comprehensive translation coverage.
Eleven Forward Entries
The complete source set is disclosed and includes one two-word phrase plus words and contractions.
Nine Reverse Entries
Cleanup recognizes nine output forms, fewer than the forward source forms because multiple inputs share results.
Case-Insensitive Boundaries
Targets match regardless of capitalization, while stored replacement strings generally use a fixed lowercase form.
Unmatched Text Passes Through
Most vocabulary and all unrecognized structures remain exactly as entered, revealing the narrow scope of the effect.

How to Review This Finite Text Effect
Use a neutral sample, inspect each changed token, and retain the original because reverse mode cannot reconstruct every input.
Step 1: Start with Your Own Neutral Sentence
Choose a brief test that includes one or more listed targets. Do not use the output to parody, identify, or claim to reproduce another person's accent or language.
Step 2: Compare Against the Forward Table
Run the converter and account for every changed expression. The function does not inspect grammar, region, speaker, setting, social context, or intended meaning.
Step 3: Treat Reverse as Cleanup, Not Recovery
Test the reverse direction if useful, but compare it with the saved source. Converging rules and contraction handling mean a round trip can change wording.
Run a Neutral Sample and Compare Both Directions
Keep the source, account for every change, and avoid treating the mechanical result as anyone's authentic speech.
