The '''Scots Gaelic''' leid ({{lang|gd|Gàidhlig}}) is a [[Goidelic leids|Goidelic]], [[Celtic leids|Celtic leid]] an ane o the hamelt leids o [[Scotland]].
It is a Q-Celtic leid that's spak in Scotland (in muckler proportions in the northren pairt o Scotland (the Hielands an Islands<!--Inches("Inish") is juist wee islands an fae Gaelic an aw-->), an abreed in [[Canadae]] ([[Cape Breton Island]], [[Nova Scotia]]). It is sib tae the [[Erse leid|Erse]] an the [[Manx Gaelic leid]], an tae the [[Welsh leid|Welsh]], [[Cornish leid|Cornish]] an [[Breton leid|Breton]] forby.
It wis spak in maist o the Lawlands an aw, as can be seen bi literature an place names:
* [[Buchan]] – Buik o Deer, auldest beuk in the Scots Gaelic {{gd icon}}
* [[Caithness]] – ''The Caithness book''
* [[Gallowa]] & [[Ayrshire]] – [[Robert the Bruce]] an [[Walter Kennedy]] baith spak Scots Gaelic.
* [[Glesca]] – "[[Auchenshuggle]]", "[[Govan]]", "Drumchapel" etc. aw cam fae Scots Gaelic an aw. Glesca still haes a michty community the day o Gaels that speaks the Gaelic, an is hame tae the first Gaelic medium [[Secondary School]].
== History ==
Thare wis a kinrick in [[Ulster]] haurd forenenst the coast richt alang bi the Giant's Causey cried [[Dalriada]] wi a wheen o warriors cried the Scots.
The Scots invaded an settlet in [[Argyll]] an brocht thair leid wi them. The Gaelic leid replaced the [[Pechtish leid]] athort Scotland wi the help o the Gaelic speakin kirk an the [[Kingdom o Scotland|unification o Scotland]]. (See [[History o Scotland]] forby). In the 1700s, Gaelic wis the main written an spaken leid o the Hielands but wis confined tae that pairt o Scotland as the feck leid.<ref name="brown">{{cite book|last1=Brown|first1=Ian|title=Edinburgh History of Scottish Literature: Enlightenment, Britain and Empire (1707-1918)|date=2006|publisher=Edinburgh University Press|isbn=978-0-7486-3064-6|pages=21–22|url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=0OWqBgAAQBAJ&pg=PA21|language=en}}</ref>
The first translate o the [[Bible]] intae Scots Gaelic wisna makkit til 1767 whan Dr James Stuart o Killin an Dugald Buchanan o Rannoch shapit a translate o the [[New Testament]]. Gey few [[Europe]]an leids hae makkit the transition tae a modren leeterar leid athoot an early modren translate o the Bible. Gaelic no haein sic a translate til the late aichteent century nae doubt contreibutit tae the decline o Scots Gaelic.

Mony fowk are stairtin tae lear the leid.
== Relation til ither leids ==
Scots Gaelic is gey close tae Erse an Manx, the ither Goidelic leids an thur written forms are whiles e'en [[mutually inteligible]] tae ilka ither.

'''Jacques Cartier''' ([[31 December]] [[1491]] – [[1 September]] [[1557]]) wis a [[Fraunce|French]] traider an splorer that is thocht o as ane o the major discoverers o [[Canadae|Canada]], or mair specifically, the inner eastren region that wad become the foremaist European-settlt pairt o that kintra.
He wis frae [[Saint-Malo]], [[Fraunce]], born in the year [[1491]] tae a weel-respeckit faimlie o marinars. He bettered his social status in [[1520]] bi mairryin Catherine des Granches, member o a leadin gailley-ainin faimlie. His guid nem in Saint-Malo is recognisit bi its monie appearances in baptismal registers as godfaither or witness.
Nae contemporary picter o Jacques Cartier haes been fund an the best kent picter (see richt) wis pentit bi a [[Roushie|Roushian]] airtist in [[1839]] for the ceety o Saint-Malo.
Gey little is kent o Cartier's chairacter or personality but his professional abilities can be eithly jaloused considerin that Cartier led three vaiges o discovery in watters nae European haed cairtit afore athoot losin a gailey, that he entered intil an depairtit fae fiftie undiscovered herbours athoot sairious mishanter, an that the anerly seefairmen o his that deid wis victims o an epidemic ashore. Tharefor he micht be considered ane o the maist conscientious splorers o the time.
Jacques Cartier wis the first European tae descrive an cairt<ref>His cairts are lost but referenced in a letter bi his nephew Jacques Noël, dated 1587 an printit bi [[Richard Hakluyt]] wi the ''Relation'' o Cartier's third voyage, in ''The Principall Navigations'' [...], London, G.

== Foremaist Vaige 1534 ==
The Keeng o Fraunce, François I, chuist him tae find "certaines îles et pays où l'on dit qu'il se doit trouver grande quantité d'or et autres riches choses" ("certaint inchs an launds whaur it is quo thare are muckle quantities o [[gowd]] an ither riches"). In 1534 he setten sail leukin for a wastren passage tae [[Asie|Asia]]. He sploret pairts o whit are the nou cried Newfoundland (stairtin on 10 Mey that year) an the Canadian Maritimes an whaur he learnt o a river forder wast (the St. Lawrence River) that he believed micht be the fair rakit-for northwest passage. [[File:The first voyage of Cartier-sco.png|thumb|left|The directions o the first vaige o Jacques Cartier, the name o the places he foond, aw in Scots.]]He landed for the first time at praisent day Gaspé, Quebec whaur he plauntit a cross an claimet the territory for Fraunce. Owre this vaige he teuk Domagaya an Taignoagny, the sons o Huron Heidsman Donnacona, back tae [[Europe]].
== Seicont Vaige 1535-1536 ==
Cartier setten sail on a seicont vaige on 19 Mey the follaein year wi three gaileys, 110 men, an the twa fremmit lads (wha wis returned tae the Heidsman). He sailed up the river for the first time an reached the steid o praisent-day Quebec Ceety, hame o the Huron clachan o Stadacona whaur Donnacona wis reunitit wi his twa sons. Cartier left his main gaileys in a herbour naur tae Stadacona an uised his smallest gailey tae conteena upriver tae veesit Hochelaga (Montreal) an arrived on 2 October 1535. Hantle mair impressive than the smaa an fousome clachan o Stadacona, mair nor a thoosand Huron came tae the edge o the river tae greet the Frenchmen. The site o thair income haes been confidently identified as the beginnin o the Sainte-Marie sault, a location whaur the Jacques Cartier Brig nou stands.
Efter spendin twa day amang the Hurons o Hochelaga, Cartier returned tae Stadacona on 11 October. It is no ken preceese whan Cartier decidit tae spend the winter o 1535-1536 in [[Canadae|Canada]] but the decision buist hae been makkit bi his income in Stadacona as it wis bi than owre ahint the haund tae return tae Fraunce. Cartier an his men prepared for winter bi strengthenin thair fort, hainin inglewid an sautin doun gemme an fish.
In throu that winter, Cartier compiled a kynd o gazetteer whilk includet several pages on the mainer o the natives, in parteecular thair prattick o wearin anerly leggings an moccasins e'en in the deid o winter.
Frae mid-November 1535 tae mid-Aprile 1536 the French fleet lay frozen solit at the gab o the St. Charles river, ablo the Rock o Quebec. Ice wis owre twa faddom thick in the river an snaw fower fit deep ashore. Tae add tae the discomfort, scurbie broke oot, first amang the Hurons an than amang the French. Bi mid-Februar, Cartier states that "oot o 110 that we wis, no ten wis weel eneuch tae help the ithers, a thing peetifu tae see". Cartier estimates the coont o Hurons deid at 50.
Ane o the natives that survived wis Domagaya, wha haed been taen tae Europe bi Cartier the year afore. He visited the French fort for a freendly ca, Cartier enquired an learnt o him that a concoction makkit frae a certaint tree cawet annedda wad cuir scurbie. Thon remeed probably sauft the expedeetion frae destruction an bi the end o the winter, 85 Frenchmen wis alive.
Ready tae sail back tae Fraunce in early Mey 1536, Cartier decidit tae kidnap Donnacona sae that he micht personally spin the tale o a kintra further north, cawet Saguenay, that wis quoet tae be fou o gowd, rubies an ither treisurs. Efter an arduous vaige doun the St. Lawrence river an a three week Atlantic crossin, Cartier an his men arrived in Saint-Malo on 15 Julie 1536.
That is hou the seicont an maist profitable o Cartier's vaiges endet, lestin fowerteen month. Haein awready locate the entrance, he nou appent up the greatest watterwey intae North America. He haed makkit an mensefu estimate o the resoorces o Canada, baith naitral an human, mauger considerable exaggeration on the meeneral side. While some o his actions wi respect tae the natives wis dishonourable, he did his best tae staiblish freendship wi the Huron up an doun the Great River, an indispensable preliminary tae French Hame.
== Thrid Vaige 1541-1542 ==
On 23 Mey 1541 Cartier depairtit Saint-Malo on his thrid vaige wi five gaileys. This time, ony thochts o finnin a passage tae the Orient wis forgotten an the goal wis tae fin the Kinrick o Saguenay an its riches, an aw tae establish a permanent Hame alenth the Saunt Lawrence River.
Anchorin at Stadacona on 23 August 1541, Cartier met the Hurons but foond thair "shaw o joy" an thair nummers worrisome an decidit no tae big his Hame thare. Sailin nine mile up the river tae a spot he haed observed aforehaun, he decidit tae settle on the site o praisent day Cap-Rouge. The convicts an ither colonists wis laundit, the nowt whilk haed survived three month aboard gailey wis turnt lowse, earth brucken fae a kitchen gairden an seeds o kail, turmit an lettuce wis plauntit. A fortified hame wis sicwice shapit whilk wis named Charlesbourg-Royal. Anither fort wis biggit on the falaise owerleukin the hame for addit pertection.
The men begoud collectin cou-leddy-stane creestal ("diamonds") an airn pyrites ("gowd") an aw. Twa o the gaileys wis dispatched hame wi some meenerals on September 2.
Haein set tasks for awbodie, Cartier left wi the longboats for a reconnaissance o the Saguenay on 7 September. Haein reakit Hochelaga, bad wather an the numerous rapids preventit him tae conteena up tae the Ottawa river.
Returnin tae Charlesbourg-Royal, Cartier fund the situation uncannie. The Hurons nae langer makkit freendly veesits or peddled fish an gemme, but prowled aboot in a sinister manner. Nae records exist aboot the winter o 1541-1542 an the information maun be gleaned fae the few details providit frae returnin sailors. It seems that the Indians attackit an killt aboot 35 settlers afore the Frenchmen coud retreat ahint the fortifications. Een tho scurbie wis cuiret throu the native remedee, the impression left is o a general meeserie an o Cartier's growin conviction that he haed insufficient manpower baith tae pertect his base an tae gae in sairch o Saguenay. In early Juin 1542 awbodie boardit the three remainin ships for tae gae hame. Thay arrived back in Europe in October o 1542.
Cartier spent the lave o his life in Saint-Malo an his naur aboots estate, an deed aged 66 on 1 September 1557 frae an epidemic. He deed afore ony permanent European Hames wis makkit in Canada; that haed tae wait for Samuel de Champlain in 1608.

The concept o '''leid''' is maist aften uised thir days as a synonym o '''langage''' an can be exponed in twa weys in modren Scots:
* a wey o communicatin anent hings, acts an ideas, inspeciallie a national ane,<ref name="CSD">{{Cite book|title=Concise Scots Dictionary|publisher=Scottish Language Dictionaries|year=2017|pages=372}}</ref>
* in the [[Doric]], it can mean a rame, i.e. a undevaulin or owerturnin owercome, or a lang randerin sonnet<ref name="CSD">{{Cite book|title=Concise Scots Dictionary|publisher=Scottish Language Dictionaries|year=2017|pages=372}}</ref>
<!-- Langage can mean:
* a wey o communicatin anent hings, acts an ideas
* a set o meanins common tae sindry fowk
* a teep o thocht
* [[seembol]]s impleein actions or inactions
But the foremaist meanin o '''leid''' is human langage.
Some fowk says that [[ainimals]] haes leids or can be leart leids; ithers dinna gree wi this, an seys that "ainimal leids" isna complicate or meaninfu eneuch tae be cried "leids", or that thay dinna hae the [[grammar]] needit tae be thocht o as leids; this o coorse lippens on the defeneition o ''leid'' a bodie is wirkin wi.
[[Mathaematics]] an [[computer science]] uises leids cried [[formal leid]]s (like computer [[programmin leid]]s). [[Mathematics]] itsel is conseidert a leid bi monie theorists. -->

'''Ecologie''', or '''ecological science''', is the scienteific study o the deistribution an rowth o leivin [[organism]]s an the wey that thir properties is affectit bi interactions atween the organisms an thair [[environ]]s. The environs o an organism includes baith the pheesical properties, them that can be descrieved as the soum o local abiotic factors like climate an [[geologie]], as weel as the ither organisms that shares its [[habitat]]. The wird ''oekologie'' wis cleckit in [[1866]] bi the German biologist, [[Ernst Haeckel]], frae the Greek ''oikos'' meanin "hoosehauld" an ''logos'' meanin "study"; that is, the "study o the hoosehauld o naitur".
biology is as well the study of the human body or focile this is known as geology

'''Naitural philosophy''' whiles cried '''physics''' (frae the [[Auncient Greek|Greek]] {{lang|grc|φυσικός}} ({{transl|grc|phusikós}}), "naitural", an {{lang|grc|φύσις}} ({{transl|grc|phúsis}}), "naitur") is a [[Naitural sciences|science o naitur]] in the braidest sense. Naitural philosophy speirs intae [[matter|maiter]] an energy an the fundamental virrs o naitur that owersees the interactions atween pairticles. Physicists study mony physical phenomenae, frae the sub-nuclear pairticles that maks up aw ordinar maiter (pairticle physics) tae the maiteral Universe as a hail ([[cosmologie]]).
Forby sib concepts sic as [[energy]] and [[force]], physics is the natural science at involves the study o matter and its motion in [[space]] and [[time]]. Mair braidly, it is the general analysis o natur, conductit for tae ken hou the [[universe]] wirks. It ane o the auldest academic disciplines, aiblins the auldest gin astronomy is includit. Ower the last twa millennie, physics wis a pairt o naitural philosophy alang wi [[chemistry]], certain branches o [[mathematics]], and [[biology]], but efter the [[scientific revolution]] in the [[17t century|17th century]], the naitural sciences becam unique research programs in their ain richt. Physics intersects wi mony interdisciplinary areas o research, sic as [[biophysics|biophysics]] and quantum chemistry, and the boondaries o physics arenae weel defined. New ideas in physics aften expleen the fundamental mechanisms o ither sciences while oppenin new avenues o research in fields sic as mathematics and [[philosophy]].

'''Mathematics''' is the studie o feck, structur, room, an chynge. Historically, Mathematics developed frae coontin, calculation, meisurement, an the studie o the shapes an muivins o [[Pheesics|pheesical]] objects, throu the uise o abstraction an deductive raesonin.
Mathematics is uised forbye tae remit tae the insicht gained bi fowk bi daein mathematics, forbye kent as the bodie o mathematical ken. This hinder meanin o mathematics includes the mathematics uised tae dae warkin oots or models an is an indispensable tuil in the [[naitural science]]s, [[ingineerin]], an [[economics]].
The wird "mathematics" comes frae the Greek μάθημα (máthema) meanin "science, ken, or lairnin" an μαθηματικός (mathematikós) meanin "fond o lairnin".
Mathematics help fowks tae understand in sindry domeins. See the airticle o'er [[reality]] tae understand a practical example o the uise o mathematics.

== Clessification ==
Algebra can be spleet up intae thir fields:
* [[Basic algebra]] studies the parteiculars o an operations on [[naitural nummer]]s, [[integer]]s, [[raitional nummer|raitional]] an [[real nummer]]s, an hou a bodie can solve [[equation]]s wi [[variable]]s.
* [[Linear algebra]] is a theory o [[vector space]]s, pairt o it bein the theory o [[linear equation]] an o [[Matrix (mathematics)|matrices]]. Ideas an methods frae linear algebra can be uised in monie sindrie brainches o mathematics. For exemplar, the chief ettle o the study o functional analysis is infinite vector spaces.
* [[Abstract algebra]] studies [[algebraic structur]]s like [[group (algebra)|groups]], [[ring (algebra)|rings]] an [[bodie (algebra)|bodies]] that generalises concepts frae basic algebra.
== History ==
Algebra, like [[coontin]] an [[geometry]], is ane o the auldest brainches o mathematics. The name comes frae a beuk bi the Arabian [[mathemateecian]] [[Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Musa al-Khwarizmi|Al-Khwarizmi]] cried ''Kitab '''al-jabr''' wa al-muqabalah'' ("The beuk o summary anent calculatin bi transposeition an reduction").
Algebra wis cleckit for tae help solve equations. The solutions o linear an quadratic equations wis aareadies kent lang syne. In the [[16t century]] Italian mathemateecians fund solutions tae cubic an quartic equations. In 1799 [[Gauss]] shawed that “ilka algebraic equation o degree <var>n</var>, haes <var>n</var> [[ruit]]s (solutions), rael or imaginar”.
At the stairt o the [[19t century]] [[Niels Abel]] an [[Evariste Galois]] pruived that the solutions o equations o degree bigger nor 4 canna be expressed uisin coeffeicients o the equation an algebraic operations juist—that is, the'r nae generalisation o the [[quadratic formula|quadratic]], [[cubic formula|cubic]] or [[quartic formula]]e tae heicher degrees.

Well, this is far too strange to actually exist. I'm browsing Wikipedia in Scots, and I see that there's actually something called Jainism. So I decided to write an article. Basically, Mayura's tight. And now she has a Wikipedia article to prove it. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Precedin [[Wikipedia:Signaturs|unsigned]] comment addit bi [[Special:Contributions/68.164.63.147|68.164.63.147]] ([[User talk:68.164.63.147|talk]]) </span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP -->

'''Law''' is a seestem o social rules for ordinar enforced throo a set o structurt institutions. Law affects ilkaday life an society in a variety o weys. Contract law regulates awthing frae buyin a bus ticket tae trokin swaptions on a derivatives mercat. Haudin law ootlines richts an obleegations relatit tae buyin, sellin, or rentin real haudin sic as hames an biggins. Trust law applees tae assets hauden for investment, sich as pension fonds. Tort law allous claims for assythment whan somebody or thair haudin is skaithed. If the hairm is creeminalised in a penal code, creeminal law offers means that the state prosecutes an punishes the perpetrator by. Constitutional law provides a framewark for creatin laws, pertectin fowk's human richts, an electin poleetical representatives, while admeenistrative law allous ordinar ceetizens tae chailenge the wey govrenments exerceese pouer.

'''Thou''' is the seicont person singular [[pronoun]] o the Inglis leid. Thou is the [[nominative]] case; the oblique/objective (functioning as baith accusative an dative) is ''thee'', an the genitive is ''thy'' or ''thine''.
In modren Inglis thou continues tae be uised in some o the regional byleids o [[Ingland]], some releegious contexts (referrin tae God whan caipitalized) an in certain speceefic phrases, e.g. "holier than thou", "fare thee well". Than, its contemporary uiss is an archaism.
== Thou in Scots ==
Thou ([ðu]) wis uised alot in Scots frae the XVIt tae the beginins o the [[Years o the XIXt an XXt Centuries|XIXt ane]], far example bi makars like [[Robert Burns]]. It is gey less uised nou.
Orkney* yet (the [[yoch]]) uises wirds sic as thoo, thee, an thou. Ither aulder Scots furms includes ''ȝe'', ''ȝow'', ''thowe'', ''thoue'', an ''thous''.

'''Muisic''' is soond that is makkit by humans for tae be haerd deleeberate-like bi ither humans. Muisic includes singin an playin wi muisical instruments, gif thay are wuid, bress, string or percussion.
Thare monie sindrie styles o muisic the warld ower.
==The Airt o Muisic==
The airt o muisic is the jynin o, or the aesome uisse o aether vocal or instrumental soonds for tae ootgie an express emotion.
Forordinar this wad align itsel wi local an cultural staundarts o rythym, melodie an harmonie.
Wi the fouth o muisical genre athort the warld, whuther hit is cryed fowk muisic o the maist hamelt furm, or the maist complex o electronic composeitions, aw o thir are upmakkit bi humans for auditory pleisure an ilkane o thir styles throu oot the warld is cryed muisic.
Muisic can eith like adapt itsel tae poyetry an sang alang wi dancin, an oot throu human heistory haes been o gret importance baith tae ritual an drama.
Nooadays muisic is aye tae the fore wi exploitin sic human emotions, at are seen maistweys throu Televeision, Radio, Theatre an the Internet.
Alsae, wi its abeility tae effect emotions bein weill kent, it is uised in baith psychotherapy an for the betterment o monie mental ills, an espeically wi geriatric anes.
==Heistorical idaias an thochts==
A muisical tone wes regairdit for common in the aerlie pairt o the 20t Century as bein characterized bi hou aften its dirl wes haerd. This uniformity gied it a fixed pitch at sindered it frae noise.
Bi the saicont hauf o the 20t Century sic a norrie wes conseidered auld farrant hooanevir, an noise, an betimes silence wad becum pairt o the modren composeition.
Forby tone, the'r ither components o muisic, siclike timbre, rythym an texture, an wi the oncome o electronic machinery in muisic allouin some composers tae upmak non tradeitional wirks, soond coud noo be recordit direct like ontil tapes or digital files.Soonds that war aforehaund unbekent an impossible, war noo tae becum reality.
==Aerlie Indien an Chinee Conceptions==
[[File:Five Celestial Musicians LACMA AC1992.254.1-.5.jpg|thumb|upright=1.2|Five Gandharvas (celestial musicianers) frae 4t–5t century CE, nor-wast Sooth Asia, carriein the fower types of muisical instruments. Gandharvas are spak o in Vedic era leiteratur.{{Sfn|Rowell|2015|pp=11–14}}]]
Muisic haes aye haed the pouer tae kittle up feelins o ecstacy wi fowk throu oot the centuries. Frae heistorical accoonts, we hae this idaias frae Auld Warld Indie .
The uisse o muisic in releigion gies us [[Vedic Hymns]] frae the auncient scripturs o Hinduism an is aiblins the auldest Vocal tradeition frae lang syne an gaes back as monie as 3000 year.
Sic an airt haes growne ower monie century intil a profoond an melodic discipline. Melled wi the releigious text an structur bonnielie expressed bi the narrators skeill.
Sic vocal skeill staunds peels wi onie ane o the muisical instruments pleyin alangside it.
The'r nae gret sibness here wi Wastren style muisic an the complexity o melody gangs faur abuin onie o wir Wastren models.
Atween the narrator/Sangster an the instrumentalist the'r aften spontaneous mimicin o soond at can staund conter tae the stot an rythym o the drums. This can kittle gret excitement, brocht on bi lealtie tae the rules o [[Raga]], the auncient melodic pattrens o Indien Muisic.
Sib tae Indien muisic is Chinee muisic, at haes tradeitionally been jyned bi Narrative an ceremony alsae.
The faur kent Chinee Philosopher [[Confucius]] (541-479 BCE) gied muckle importance tae muisic, athin the morality o wir Universe.
He sayed at Govrenment an muisic stuid aqual wi ither, an onlie fowk wi guid ken o muisic war able for tae Govren fowk. Alsa he believed at muisic gangs in harmony wi the universe, eikin order tae wir physical warld throu sic harmony. He addit, Truelins muisic reflecks character, an maks pretence an swickerie impossible.
==Muisical Idaias frae Auncient Greece==
Muisic wes o muckle importance in [[Auncient Greece]] whaur baith muisicianers an sangsters war aye at the for athin Greek theatre.
In eddication muisic wes alsae important an frae sax year auld boys war leared i the skeill. Sich leiteracy in muisic alloued a fouth o developments.
The day we see baith at Releigous Muisic an Classical Muisic cam frae Greek muisic theory an The Greek muisical modes.
Efterhaund, The Rouman an Byzantine Impires an aa gied influence tae Greek muisic alang wi influence frae Eastren Europe.
The auldest ensaumple o muisical composeition alang wi muisical notation we hae the day is cryed [[The Seikilos Epitaph]].
The auldest screed on the subjeck o muisical theory is cryed [[Harmonika Stoicheia]] bi [[Aristoxenus]].
==Muisic athin the Bible==
Ken o muisic athin the [[Bible]] an the Biblical Period is taen maistlins frae leiteral soorces, an aftimes Post Biblical soorces forbye.
Heistorian o Releigion an Muisic Herbert Lockyer Jr tells us o muisic at wes baith vocal an instrumental an wes growthie amang [[The Hebrews]], [[New Testament Christians]] an [[The Christian Kirk]] oot throu the centuries. Mairatowre, he airts us tae [[The Auld Testament]] an hou God's auncient fowk war devote tae baith the study o, an the pleyin o muisic.
Learit scholars o Muisic an [[Theatre]] at hiv studied the anthropologie o [[Semitics]] an aerlie [[Judeo Christian]] cultur hae discuivered common threids atween theatrical an muisical acteivities athin the Classical culturs o The Greeks an The Romans.
For common we finnd performance in a social phenomena cryed [[Litany]]. A kinnd o prayer at intaks a series o [[Invocations]] or [[Supplications]].
The Jurnal o Releigion an Theatre says that amang the maist aerlie furms o Litany, Hebrew litany wes accompanied bi rowthie muisical tradeition.
==Medieval Era 476 til 1400==
[[File:Vielle.jpg|right|thumb|A musicianer plays the [[vielle]] in a fowerteent-century [[Medieval]] [[manuscript]]]]
Durand the Middle ages we hae The Medieval Era at stairts wi the ontak o the singil melodic line, or monophonic chantin oot throu the services bi The Roman Catholic Kirk. Sic muisical notation haed been uised sen lang syne wi Auncient Greek cultur.
It is wi the middle ages houanevir at we hae an innin tae notation bi The Catholic Kirk, allouin for sic chants melodies tae be scrievit doon, an sicwyce forderin the uisse o the selsame melodies oot throu The hail Catholic Impire.
The anely European Medieval repertoire we hae in written furm frae afore 800 CE is the monophonic Liturgical Plainsang chant o The Roman Catholic Kirk, or whit is aiblins better kent as [[Gregorian Chants]].
Forbye thir tradeitions o Kirk muisic we hae secular sang, betimes cryed (Non Releigious Sangs).
The maist weill kent composers o the time war [[Léonin]], [[Perotin]], [[Guillame de Machant]] an [[Walter von der Vogelweide]].
==The Renaissance Muisic o Europe 1400 til 1600==
[[File:The Concert A22894.jpg|left|thumb|260px|A group o Renaissance musicianers in ''The Concert'' (1623) by [[Gerard van Honthorst]]]]
The wird renaissance is a Frainch wird at means re-birth, an anent muisic it wes an era o splore an discuivery at in taks the years atween 1400 an 1600.
The aforehaund middle ages period wes a time whan The Roman Catholic Kirk haed owerance o awmaist aw o fowks lifes, an maist muisic wes Kirk reekit an thirled tae thon wi maist composeitions based upo the Plain Chairt that haed been uised frae aerlie Christianity.
Tho maistlins The Catholic Kirk haed control o muisic durand the renaissance period, it did lowse poleitical control ower society at wad allou freedom for composers tae tak influence frae The Airts, Classical Mythologie, Astronomie an Mathematics forbye.
Wi the upmak o prentin graith, scrievit muisic wes able for tae be furthset an distribute widely for the first time.
The ettle for maist muisic wes for it tae be sung, aether bi choirs in The Kirks, or wi sangs or [[Madrigals]].
Muisic athoot vocals wes tae flouer an aa, an wi the forderin o technology we hae speceific wrutten muisic for a wheen o mair agile instruments, the like o [[The Lute]].
The feck o composers i The Aerlie Renaissance haed cam frae the [[Netherlands]] an Northren Fraunce. This wes adae wi the backs gien thaim frae thair ain Ryal Coorts.
Efterhaund, sic composin airts war tae spreid oot intil ither pairts o Europe as the success o The Italien Ceitie State taen haud, allouin for monie a Northren Composers tae ventur Sootharts for tae seek oot walth.
A wheen Italien composers haed cam tae Venice at [[The Basilica o St Marks]]. [[Andrea an Giovanni Gabrieli]] haed furthset braw muisic pieces for muckle choirs an instruments.
[[Allegri]] an [[Palestrina]] in Roum war tae scrieve whit aiblins wad be conseidered the hinmaist wirk o renaissance composers, wi thair lairge choral wirk at aye kittles the lugs day.
==Baroque==
Baroque muisic is conseidered a style o muisic at wes tae the fore arween 1600-1750.
Maisit weill kent for hits guid gaun speirit an grand dramatic style.
Tho muisic the like o [[Pachelbel]]'s Canon an [[Vivaldi]]'s [[The Four Seasons]] are kenspeckle tae maist o us the day, monie o the maist faur kent personalities o the first pairt o [[The Baroque Period]] cam frae Italie,Monteverdi an Corelli tae nemm juist twa.
A guid nummer o the kent tairms frae Baroque cam frae Italie. [[Contata]], [[Concerta]], [[Sonata]], [[Oratorio]] an [[Opera]].
The sindrie styles o soond funnd in Ilk Nation cam frae new thinkin on whit wes a Nation State ,an can be haerd no juist wi hou the muisic wes componed but wi thoct an performance forbye.
Monie muisicianers traivelled ower Europe an wad lug in tae ilkane o the Kintries muisic ,gien them new chuckies tae eik til thair ain cairn.

==Classical Period 1730-1820==
The years atween 1730 an 1820 are maistlins acceptit as whit we cry [[The Classical Period]] in Muisic.
It sits in atween The Baroque an Romantic Periods in muisic.
The texture o classical muisic is thocht o as safter nor Baroque an no sae complex forbye.
Variety an contrast athin a piece are mair noted than in the period aforehaund, wi sic variety o keys,melodies an dynamics uisin crescendo,diminuendo an sforzando alang wi mair aft uised chynges tae muid an timbre.
This wes mair uised in the period nor whit it wes i the Baroque Period.[[File:FortepianoByMcNultyAfterWalter1805.jpg|thumb|upright|Fortepiana by Paul McNulty efter Walter & Sohn, c. 1805]]
The Orchestra wes lairger noo ,an tho melodies war aften shorter, we dae see the dwynin o The Harpsichord an the kythin o a sel staundin Wuidwind section.
As the Harpsichord bacam less popular we hae [[The Paina]] brocht intil uisse mair (Fortepiana).
Tho firstlins the Piana haed a lichter soond an texture,aft times wi an Alberti Bass alangside it. Efterhaund it bacam a mair pouerfu an rich soond.
Muckle importance wes gien tae Instrumental muisic.The main kinnds bein Sonata,Trio, String Quartet,Symphony,Concerto,Serenade an Divertimento.
O maist import wes Sonata, at wes uised tae swall the first muivement o the lairger works ,but alsae ither muivements, forbye singil pieces sic as Overtures.

Tho maistlins The Catholic Kirk haed control o muisic durand the renaissance period, it did lowse poleitical control ower society at wad allou freedom for composers tae tak influence frae The Airts, Classical Mythologie, Astronomie an Mathematics forbye.
Wi the upmak o prentin graith, scrievit muisic wes able for tae be furthset an distribute widely for the first time.
The ettle for maist muisic wes for it tae be sung, aether bi choirs in The Kirks, or wi sangs or [[Madrigals]].
Muisic athoot vocals wes tae flouer an aa, an wi the forderin o technology we hae speceific wrutten muisic for a wheen o mair agile instruments, the like o [[The Lute]].
The feck o composers i The Aerlie Renaissance haed cam frae the [[Netherlands]] an Northren Fraunce. This wes adae wi the backs gien thaim frae thair ain Ryal Coorts.
Efterhaund, sic composin airts war tae spreid oot intil ither pairts o Europe as the success o The Italien Ceitie State taen haud, allouin for monie a Northren Composers tae ventur Sootharts for tae seek oot walth.

Scotland aye haes [[Scots law]], its ain European legal seistem foondit on [[Roman law]], that brings thegither featurs o baith [[ceevil law (legal seestem)|ceevil law]] an [[common law]]. The terms o union wi England specifee'd the haudin til o sindert seistems.<!-- Whits kent as ''barristers'' in England is cried cried advocates, an the juidges o the hie coort for ceevil cases the juidges for the hie coort for creeminal cases. Scots Law differs frae England's common law seestem. -- This bittie disna seem richt placed. -->
Langsyn thar wis sindrie regional law seistems in Scotland, ane bein [[Udal Law]] (cried ''allodail'' or ''odal law'' forby) in [[Shetland]] an [[Orkney]]. This wis a direk eftirganger o Auld Norse law, but wis duin awa wi in [[1611]]. Mauger this, Scots coorts haes acknawledged the owerins o Udal law in sum haudin cases as newlins as the [[1990s]].

Wis Proushae no afore us?-->. This begoud wi the Eddication Act o 1696 an becam compulsorie for bairns frae the implementation o the Eddication Act o 1872 onwarts.
Acause o thon, for mair nor twa hunder yeir Scotland haed a heicher percentage o its population educate at primarie, seicondar an tertiarie levels nor onie ither kintra in [[Europe]]. The differs in eddication haes kyth'd in different weys, but maist merkit is the nummer o Scots that gaed on ti become [[leadership|leader]]s in thair feilds durin the 18t an 19t [[century|yeirhunders]]. The politeician [[Jim Wallace]] statit in October 2004 that Scotland produces a heicher nummer o varsitie an college graduates per heid nor onie ither kintra in Europe.

Juist strang poleetical pressur durin the 19t yeirhunder stappit the resultin strang baunkin seistem frae takkin ower baunkin in Ingland. Houaniver, awtho Scots baunks wisna walcum in Ingland at the tym, thair [[business model]] wis wydlie copied, first in England an syn in the lave o the warld. This isna ti say that the Scots baunkin seistem wis immune frae crises - specialie the foonderin o the [[City of Glasgow Bank]] in 1878.
The Saufins Baunk muvement wis clekit in Scotland in 1810 bi the Reverend [[Henry Duncan]] as a wey o lattin his pareeshioners sauf smawer amoonts o siller nor the major baunks wad tak as deposits at that tym.

Houaniver the [[Airdrie Savings Baunk]] haudit on til its poseition ootsyd this process.
Forby thon, Scotland developit a nummer o pouerfu [[Life Assurance]] companies durin the 19t an 20t yeirhunders. Thir wis maistlins managed on the [[mutual]] model, offerin [[wi-profits]] investment as weil as pertection bisiness.

A '''sport''' is an [[organised]], [[competitive]], [[entertainment|entertainin]], an skilful [[activity]] requirin commitment, strategy, an [[sportsmanship|fair play]], in which a winner an loser can be defined bi objective means. Generally speakin, a sport is a [[gemme]] based in pheesical [[athleticism]]. Activities sic as [[buird gemme]]s an [[caird gemme]]s are whiles classifee'd as "[[Gemme o skill|mind sports]]," but strictly speakin "sport" bi itsel refers tae some pheesical activity. Non-competitive activities mey an aa qualify, for example tho joggin or playin catch are uisually clessifee'd as forms o [[recreation]], thay mey an aa be informally cried "sports" due tae thair similarity tae competitive gemmes.
Sports are govrened bi a set o [[regulation o sport|rules]] or [[tradition|customs]]. Pheesical events sic as scorin goals or crossin a line first aften define the result o a sport. Housomeivver, the degree o skill an performance in some sports sic as [[divin]], [[dressage]] an [[feegur skeitchin]] is judged accordin tae well-defined criteria. This is in contrast wi ither judged activities sic as [[beauty pageant]]s an [[body biggin]], whaur skill daes no hae tae be shawn an the criteria are no as well defined.
Records are kept an updatit for maist sports at the heichest levels, while failurs an accomplishments are widely annoonced in [[sport news]]. Sports are maist aften played juist for fun or for the semple fact that fowk need exercise tae stay in guid pheesical condeetion. Housomeivver, professional sport is a major soorce o entertainnment.

'''Philosophy''' is a [[Greek leid|Greek]] wird for 'luv o wit.' It can be uised ti mean monie things.
* A personal wey tae think aboot the warld, or a pairt o it.
* A set o conceits that gangs thegither, wrocht oot bi a bodie that haes studied weys o thinkin aboot the warld.
* The studie o abstract conceits
Philosophy in this airticle means a group o conceits that haes been thocht on bi academic [[philosopher]]s (fowk that daes philosophy) for a lang time. Thir conceits haes come tae form a bodie o kennis, [[knawledge]] an quaistens that is unco muckle. Thare's monie different kynds o philosophy, some o them comin frae [[Europe]], in parteecular (Auld) [[Greece]], whaur as ithers comes frae Asie or ither pairts o the warld.
== Innin ==
Ae defineetion o philosophy is that it is the studie o [[human]] beins an the [[warld]] bi thinkin an speirin; anither defineetion is that it is the studie o abstract conceits (that is the conceits theirsels). It isna a pairt o [[science]] sin it daesna observe or studie the things an events in the warld (the [[scientific method]]) tae find oot whit wey it wirks. Insteid it ettles tae answer monie quaistens bi comin up wi [[realistic]] answers an speirin "whit for no?"
Filosofie is sib tae [[science]] an tae [[releegion]] an can compete wi thae twa in answerin some quaistens. Some fowk says that philosophy ligs atween science an releegion. Ither fowk says that it shoud be studied its lane. Maist Philosophers (fowk that studies philosophy) disna come up wi the same answers tae quaistens an it is aften thocht that, in contrast wi science or releegion, thare's nae richt answers in philosophy, juist better anes.
Some important quaistens that philosophy speirs, amang ithers, is "Whit is [[guid]] an whit is bonnie?", "Daes [[God]] exeest?", "Daes the warld aboot us exeest?", "Whit is a [[bodie]]?", an "Whit is [[Truith]]?".
=== Fields or brainches o philosophy ===
Philosophy can be sindert intil fields or brainches (that we coud cry disciplines or sorts) foondit on the kynds o quaistens that it speirs. Here is a fuller leet o quaistens sindert intil fields or brainches. Ae possible leet o answers tae thir quaistens can be cried a 'philosophy'. Thare's monie differrin 'philosophys' sin aw thae quaistens haes monie differrin answers.
'''In [[metapheesics]] :'''
Metapheisics is whiles sindert intil [[ontologie]] (the philosophy o realitie an bein), the [[philosophy o mynd]] an the [[philosophy o releegion]], houaniver thir sub-brainches is awfu seemlar.
''Ontologie:''
* Whit is the warld that we see aboot us? (whit is [[realitie]]?)
** Is thare mair tae the warld nor juist the things that we see or hear?
** Whan naebodie sees a thing happen daes that mean that it didna happen?
** Coud thare be ither warlds? For exemplar coud thare be a warld whaur [[Bill Clinton]] haedna won the [[1992]] US presidential election?
* Is thare oniething byordinar aboot bein [[Human]] or e'en aboot bein [[life|Alive]] at aw ?
** Gin no, whit for daes some fowk think that thare is ?
* Whit is space ? Whit is time ?
''The philosophy o mynd:''
* Whit is a [[mynd]] ?
* Whit is a [[bodie]] ?
* Whit is [[Consciousness]] ?
* Daes fowk mak chyces or are thay weirdit tae dae the ae thing ? (Daes fowk hae [[free will]] ?)
''The philosophy o releegion:''
* Daes fowk hae [[Sowel]]s ?
* Is thare a God ?
'''In [[epistemologie]]'''
* Whit is [[knawledge]] ?
* Whit for can we ken oniething ?
* Whit is [[Science]] ?
* Whit is [[Truith]]
'''In [[ethics]] :'''
* Whit is Richt an Wrang, Guid an Ill ?

* Whit is [[Juistice]] ?
'''In [[Aesthetics]] :'''
* Whit is [[Beautie]] ?
* Is true things beautiful ?
* Is guid things beautiful ?
* Whit is [[Airt]] ?
'''In [[Logic]] :'''
* Whit daes the wirds we uise mean ?
* Whit for can we say things (conceits in parteecular) sae that thay juist hae the ae meanin ?
* Can aw conceits be expressed uisin [[wirds]] ?
* Whit is truith ?
== Is philosophy uissfu? ==
Daes philosophy dae onie guid? Fowk disna gree anent this.
Some fowk thinks that philosophy hairms the [[Kirk]] or the [[State]], as philosophy is a kin o free-thinkin an aften quaistens the beliefs that ithers hauds.
Ither fowk thinks that philosophy is juist ordinar [[rummle-gumption]] or [[politics]].
Philosophers believes that speirin philosophical quaistens is uissfu acause it brings [[wit]] an holps fowk ti lairn anent the warld an ilk ither. Some thinks politics is juist a [[competeetion]] or [[argiement]] atween philosophys, that can end up wi fowk ettlin tae gar ilk ither dae things bi [[law]] an [[veeolence]]. This [[collogue]] haes been gaun on for thoosands o yeirs - as haes collogues anent aw the quaistens abuin.
== Whit for dae fowk dae philosophy ==
Some philosophers is full-time thinkers (cried ''academics''), ithers is juist "[[habby]]" thinkers, or approaches philosophy frae anither job, for exemplar a [[monk]], an [[airtist]] or a [[scientist]]. Maist Philosophers wirks bi speirin quaistens an leukin for guid defineetions (meanins) o wirds for tae unnerstaund whit a quaisten means. Some philosophers says the ae thing ye maun hae for tae answer a quaisten is tae find oot whit it means an that the ae thing that maks philosophical quaistens sic as thir abuin difficult is that fowk disna raellie ken whit thay mean (for exemplar [[Ludwig Wittgenstein]]).
Philosophers will aften uise exemplars frae rael life for tae mak a pynt forby, for exemplar thay micht scrieve anent a rael or feectional chiel for tae shaw thair conceit o a guid cheil or an ill ane.
Some philosophers graip for the semplest gate for tae answer a quaisten an says that thon is maist lik tae be the richt answer. That is a process cried [[Occam's Razor]]. Ithers believes that complicate answers ti quaistens can be richt an aw.
For an exemplar o a philosophical kinch, leuk at the [[god paradox]].

The labours of my sires, and fled the sea,
The towers we founded and the lamps we lit,
To play at home with paper like a child.
But rather say: ''In the afternoon of time''
''A strenuous family dusted from its hands''
''The sand of granite, and beholding far''
''Along the sounding coast its pyramids''
''And tall memorials catch the dying sun,''
''Smiled well content, and to this childish task''
''Around the fire addressed its evening hours.''</poem></blockquote>
==="An Apology for Idlers"===
In 1877, tae justify turnin his back on an established profession, Stevenson offered "An Apology for Idlers". "A happy man or woman", he argued, "is a better thing to find than a five-pound note. He or she is a radiating focus of goodwill" an a practical demonstration o "the great Theorem of the Liveableness of Life". Sae if fowk cannae be happy in the "handicap race for sixpenny pieces", let them tak their ain "by-road".<ref>{{Cite news |title=Robert Louis Stevenson "An Apology for Idlers" (first appeared in Cornhill Magazine, July 1877) |url=https://www.wired.com/beyond-the-beyond/2018/01/robert-louis-stevenson-apology-idlers/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210411112110/https://www.wired.com/beyond-the-beyond/2018/01/robert-louis-stevenson-apology-idlers/ |archive-date=11 April 2021 |access-date=18 March 2021 |magazine=Wired |language=en-us |issn=1059-1028}}</ref>

[[File:Rls-pc1.jpg|thumb|Stevenson at 30|312x312px]]
Late in 1873, when he wis 23, Stevenson wis veesitin a cousin in Ingland when he met twa fowk that wad come tae mean a great deal tae him: Fanny (Frances Jane) Sitwell an Sidney Colvin. Sitwell wis a woman o 34 wi a son, separatit frae her husband. Monie that met her were devotit tae her, Colvin amang them, an he mairit her in 1901. Stevenson wis drawn tae her an aw, an for several years they kept up a warm correspondence, in which he swithered atween the pairt o a suitor an the pairt o a son (he cried her "Madonna"). Colvin becam Stevenson's literary adviser, an efter Stevenson's daith he wis the first editor o his letters. It wis Colvin that placed Stevenson's first peyed piece, an essay cried "Roads", in ''The Portfolio''.<ref name=":5" />{{rp||pp=81-89}}
Stevenson wis suin active in the literary life o Lunnon, an got tae ken monie o the writers o the time, amang them [[Andrew Lang]], Edmund Gosse<ref name=":5" />{{rp||pp=95, 101}} an Leslie Stephen, the editor o ''The Cornhill Magazine'', that took an interest in Stevenson's wark. Stephen took Stevenson tae veesit a patient at the Edinburgh Infirmary cried William Ernest Henley, an energetic, blether o a poet wi a widden leg. Henley becam a close freend an whiles a literary collaborator, till a cast-oot ended the freendship in 1888, an he is aften thocht tae be the inspiration for Long John Silver in ''Treasure Island''.<ref>Balfour (1901) I, 123-4; Furnas (1952) 105–6; Mehew (2004)</ref>
In November 1873, efter his heal brak doon, Stevenson wis sent tae [[Menton]] on the French Riviera tae recover. He cam back in better heal in Aprile 1874 an settled doon tae his studies, but efter that he gaed back tae Fraunce several times.<ref name=":5" />{{rp||pp=89-95}} He gaed on lang an frequent trips tae the Forest o Fontainebleau, bidin at Barbizon, Grez-sur-Loing an Nemours an becomin a member o the airtists' colonies thare. He traivelt tae Paris an aw, tae veesit galleries an theatres.<ref>Balfour (1901) I, 128–37</ref> In Julie 1875, aged 24, he qualified for the Scots bar, an his faither pit a brass plate on the hoose in Heriot Row that read "R.L. Stevenson, Advocate". His law studies did hae an influence on his buiks, but he niver practised law;<ref name=":5" />{{rp||pp=100-101}} aw his energy gaed intae traivel an writin. Ane o his journeys wis a canoe vaige in Belgium an Fraunce wi Sir Walter Simpson, a freend frae the Speculative Society, a frequent traivellin companion, an the writer o ''The Art of Golf'' (1887). This trip wis the foond o his first traivel buik, ''An Inland Voyage'' (1878).<ref>Balfour (1901) I, 127</ref>
Stevenson kept up a lang correspondence wi his fellae Scot [[J. M. Barrie|J.M. Barrie]]. He askit Barrie tae veesit him in [[Samoa]], but the twa o them niver met.<ref>Shaw, Michael (ed.)

The canoe vaige wi Simpson brocht Stevenson tae Grez-sur-Loing in September 1876. Thare he met Fanny Van de Grift Osbourne (1840–1914), born in [[Indianapolis]] in the Unitit States. She haed mairit at 17, an flittit tae [[Nevada]] tae jine her husband Samuel again efter he haed fochten in the American Civil War. Their bairns were Isobel (or "Belle"), Lloyd an Hervey (that died in 1875).

Stevenson gaed back tae Breetain no lang efter this first meetin, but Fanny seems tae hae bidden in his thochts, an he wrote the essay "On falling in love" for ''The Cornhill Magazine''.<ref>Balfour (1901) I, 145–6; Mehew (2004)</ref> They met again early in 1877 an becam luvers.

In August 1879, aged 28, he set aff tae jine her, against his freends' advice an withoot tellin his faither an mither. He took a seicont-cless passage on the steamship ''Devonia'', pairtly tae save siller, but pairtly an aw tae learn hou ither fowk traivelt, an tae mak the journey mair o an adventure.<ref>Balfour (1901) I, 164–5; Furnas (1952), 142–6; Mehew (2004)</ref> Syne he traivelt ower laund bi train frae [[New York Ceety]] tae [[Californie]]. He wrote aboot it later in ''The Amateur Emigrant''. It wis guid for his writin, but it brak his heal.

[[File:Robert Louis Stevenson and family.jpg|thumb|right|The faimily in 1893: Fanny; Stevenson; his stepdochter Isobel; an his mither, Margaret Balfour]]
He wis near deid when he arrived in Monterey, Californie, whaur some local ranchers nursed him back tae heal. For a time he bade at the French Hotel at 530 Houston Street, nou a museum tae his memory cried the "Stevenson House". While he wis thare, he aften dined "on the cuff", as he pit it, at a restaurant nearhaund run bi a Frenchman cried Jules Simoneau, that stuid whaur Simoneau Plaza is nou. Several year later he sent Simoneau a signed copy o his novel ''[[Unco Case o Dr Jekyll an Mr Hyde|Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde]]'' (1886), writin that it wad be a stranger case yet if Robert Louis Stevenson ever forgot Jules Simoneau. In Monterey he wrote an evocative piece aboot "the Old Pacific Capital".
Bi December 1879, aged 29, Stevenson's heal haed come back eneuch for him tae gang on tae San Francisco. Thare he focht "all alone on forty-five cents a day, and sometimes less, with quantities of hard work and many heavy thoughts,"<ref>Letter to Sidney Colvin, January 1880, ''The Letters of Robert Louis Stevenson'', Volume 1, [[S:The Letters of Robert Louis Stevenson Volume 1/Chapter IV|Chapter IV]]</ref> tryin tae mak a livin bi his writin. But bi the end o the winter his heal wis broken again, an he wis at daith's door. Fanny wis nou divorced an haed got ower her ain illness, an she cam tae his bedside an nursed him back tae heal. "After a while," he wrote, "my spirit got up again in a divine frenzy, and has since kicked and spurred my vile body forward with great emphasis and success."<ref>"To Edmund Gosse, Monterey, Monterey Co., California, 8 October 1879," ''The Letters of Robert Louis Stevenson'', Volume 1, [[S:The Letters of Robert Louis Stevenson Volume 1/Chapter IV|Chapter IV]]</ref> When his faither heard hou his son wis, he cabled him siller tae help him throu.
Fanny an Robert were mairit in Mey 1880. She wis 40; he wis 29. He said he wis "a mere complication of cough and bones, much fitter for an emblem of mortality than a bridegroom."<ref>"To P. G. Hamerton, Kinnaird Cottage, Pitlochry [July 1881]," ''The Letters of Robert Louis Stevenson'', Volume 1, [[S:The Letters of Robert Louis Stevenson Volume 1/Chapter V|Chapter V]]</ref> He traivelt wi his new wife an her son Lloyd<ref>Isobel was married to artist Joseph Strong.</ref> north o San Francisco tae the Napa Valley, an spent a simmer honeymuin at a desertit minin camp on Mount Saint Helena (the day designatit Robert Louis Stevenson State Park). ''The Silverado Squatters'' is his account o that time. He met Charles Warren Stoddard, co-editor o the ''Overland Monthly'' an writer o ''South Sea Idylls'', that urged Stevenson tae traivel tae the Sooth Pacific, an idea that cam back tae him monie years later. In August 1880 he sailed wi Fanny an Lloyd frae New York tae Breetain, an fund his faither an mither an his freend Sidney Colvin on the quay at [[Liverpuil|Liverpool]], gled tae see him come hame. Bit bi bit his wife wis able tae patch up the differences atween faither an son, an wan her wey intae the faimily throu her chairm an wit.

{{Quote box

For muckle o the 20t century Stevenson wis seen as a seicont-cless writer.

On Stevenson's modren nem, the American film critic [[Roger Ebert]] wrote in 1996:
<blockquote>I was talking to a friend the other day who said he'd never met a child who liked reading Robert Louis Stevenson's ''Treasure Island''.
Neither have I, I said. And he'd never met a child who liked reading Stevenson's ''Kidnapped''. Me neither, I said. My early exposure to both books was via the Classics Illustrated comic books. But I did read the books later, when I was no longer a kid, and I enjoyed them enormously. Same goes for Stevenson's ''Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde''.
The fact is, Stevenson is a splendid writer of stories for adults, and he should be put on the same shelf with Joseph Conrad and Jack London instead of in between Winnie the Pooh and Peter Pan.<ref>{{Cite news |date=1996-02-16 |title=Muppet Treasure Island |work=[[Chicago Sun Times]] |url=https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/muppet-treasure-island-1996 |access-date=2019-05-07 |archive-date=25 January 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190125073540/https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/muppet-treasure-island-1996 |url-status=live }}</ref></blockquote>

Afore the Scots poems Stevenson pit a note on hou he wrote the leid.

[[File:The Sun by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly of NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory - 20100819.jpg|thumb|False-colour eemagery o the [[Sun]], a [[G-teep main-sequence starn]], the closest tae Yird]]
A '''starn''' is a big baw o gas in [[ooter space]], makkit maistlins oot o [[hydrogen]] an a wee bit o [[helium]] plus ither [[element]]s. The [[Sun]] is sic a starn. In the centre, the [[poust (naitural philosophy)|poust]] o [[gravity]] is sae odious that the temperaturs are heich eneuch for the [[atom]]s tae fuse thegither, causin [[nuclear fusion]]. This [[energy]] huily leaks oot o the starn (ower a few hunder thoosand year in the case o the sun), an by the time it wins at the surface maist o this energy is in the form o visible [[licht]]. Maist starns leuk like glazie dots frae the [[Yird]], acause thay are faur awa. Wir [[Sun]] is the naurmaist starn tae us. The yird muives aroond (''[[orbit]]s'') the Sun in an oval shape. The Sun an aw things that orbit it is cried the [[solar seestem]]. Mony ither starns whiles hae [[planet]]s orbitin thaim an aw. Scientists hae fund ither planets muivin aroond ither starns, but nae planets that thay hae fund are equal-aqual tae the [[Yird]].
The naurmaist starn tae wir Solar Seestem, an the seicont naurmaist starn tae the Yird efter the Sun, is [[Proxima Centauri]]. It is 39.9 [[trillion]] [[kilometre]]s awa. This is 4.2 [[licht year]] awa, meanin that licht frae Proxima Centauri taks 4.2 [[year]] tae win at the Yird.

'''Computer science''' (abbreviatit '''CS''' or '''CompSci''') is the [[science|scienteefic]] an practical approach tae [[computation]] an its applications. It is the systematic stiddy o the feasibility, structur, expression, an mechanization o the methodical [[Procedure (computer science)|proceedurs]] (or [[algorithm]]s) that underlie the acquisition, representacioun, procesin, storage, communicaition o, an access tae [[information]], whethir such information is encodit as [[bit]]s in a [[computer memory]] or transcribit in [[gene]]s an [[protein]] structurs in a biological [[cell (biology)|cell]].<ref>{{cite web |title=What is Computer Science? |publisher=Boston University Department of Computer Science |date=Spring 2003 |url=http://www.cs.bu.edu/AboutCS/WhatIsCS.pdf |accessdate=December 12, 2014 |archive-date=2015-02-18 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150218130340/http://www.cs.bu.edu/AboutCS/WhatIsCS.pdf |url-status=dead }}</ref> An alternate, mair succinct definition o computer science is the study o automatin algorithmic processes that scale. A [[computer scientist]] specializes in the theorie a computation an the design o computational systems.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://wordnetweb.princeton.edu/perl/webwn?s=computer%20scientist |title=WordNet Search - 3.1 |publisher=Wordnetweb.princeton.edu |accessdate=2012-05-14}}</ref>
Its subfields can be dividit intae a varietie o theoretical an practical disciplines. Some fields, such as [[computational complexitie theorie]] (which exploires the fundamental properties o [[Computational problam|computational]] an intractable problams), are hielie abstract, while fields such as [[Computer graphics (computer science)|computer graphics]] emphasize real-world visual applications. Still other fields focus on the challenges in implementin computation. Fer example, [[programming leid theorie]] considers various approaches tae the description o computation, while the stiddy o [[computer programmin]] itsel investigates various aspects o the use o [[programmin leid]] an [[complex systems]]. [[Human–computer interaction]] considers the challenges in makkin computers an computations usefull, uisable, an [[Computer accessibility|universally accessible]] tae [[human]]s.
