No they havnae -- they've been *incor****ated into* Scots an Inglis. Tae  
say they've bin preserved disnae account fir language change. Fir an  
example usin anither livin leid, whit about "gob", fae the Gaelic "goba". 

It's no the same as it wis, so it hasnae bin preserved.

An ye still havnae telt me how ye can tell which Scots words are fae  
***bric and which fae Pictish. Mair still could be fae Galwegian or  
now-lost dialects of Erse or Gaelic, cos they're a ower similar tae tell  
apart wi'out ony scriven material tae look at.

***bric *wis* as Scottish. It's deid, an it's no comin back unless ye mak 

yersel a time machine.
