Moose Wab — Animals in Scots #9
Hi All 👋 Although not an animal, todays word comes from a wabster (spider); moose wab is a spiders web!
Moose wab All the Scots words for these posts are taken from The Concise English-Scots Dictionary, by the Scottish National Dictionary Association. The words chosen will be the generally accepted term, but as in all languages there are regional variations, as well as sub-species variations. For example, an owl is generally known as a hoolet in Scots, but an ool in Shetland & the NE. A barn owl is a white hoolet & a long eared owl, a hornnie hoolet.
