The adjective Scottish is the most general word used to describe the people and things of Scotland, while Scots is only used to describe its people, its law and especially its language. 形容词 Scottish 为含义最广的用语，形容来自苏格兰的人和物。Scots 仅用来表示苏格兰人、苏格兰法律，尤其是苏格兰语：◆Scottish dancing 苏格兰舞蹈◆the Scottish parliament 苏格兰议会◆a well-known Scots poet 著名的苏格兰诗人◆a slight Scots accent 轻微的苏格兰口音
The adjective Scotch is now mainly used in fixed expressions such as Scotch whisky and Scotch broth and sounds old-fashioned or insulting if it is used in any other way. 形容词 Scotch 现主要用于某些固定短语中，如 Scotch whisky（苏格兰威士忌）和 Scotch broth（苏格兰浓汤）。用于其他地方则显得过时或带有侮辱性。
The noun Scotch means whisky, and the noun Scots refers to a language spoken in Scotland, closely related to English. A person who comes from Scotland is a Scot. 名词 Scotch 指苏格兰威士忌，而名词 Scots 指与英语密切相关的苏格兰语。苏格兰人用 Scot 表示：◆The Scots won their match against England. 苏格兰人在与英格兰人的比赛中获胜。
