In my ain words : an East Neuk vocabulary

Murray, Mary, 19821982
Books, Manuscripts
The author was born and grew up in Cellardyke which between the wars was still the fisher folks' part of Anstruther. The words in this collection were her first language, only 'speaking proper' at school and on special occasions. Most of the fisher words were known in fisher towns all over Scotland but since the auther is a 'Dyker' she has chosen Dyker words as the basis of this collection.
