格拉斯哥 - 喧鬧而驕傲
[ 2007-09-13 18:50 ]

盡管格拉斯哥人常被認為是一群粗人,來自一個并不大氣的城市,但實際上他們特別友好熱情。格拉斯哥人憑借其務(wù)實的幽默感和三寸不爛之舌而出名。他們擁有濃郁的社會主義歷史,是個驕傲的民族。

The people

Despite their reputation for being a tough bunch from a ‘mean city’, Glaswegians are actually a notably friendly bunch. Famous for their down-to-earth sense of humour and their endless ability to talk, Glaswegians are a proud people with a strong socialist history.

Known as ‘the patter’, the Glasgow dialect is very distinctive and has produced unique words such as ‘skoosh’ - any fizzy soft drink - and ‘bampot’ – fool.

Referred to by their fellow Scots as ‘weegies’, ‘keelies’ or ‘soap dodgers’ (a friendly insult), the Glaswegians are also noted for their sectarian culture. As part of ‘the people’s Glesga’, you are either a ‘billy’ or a ‘dan’ (a protestant or a catholic). The sectarianism, although rarely violent, spills over into all aspects of Glasgow life, from football teams – Rangers or Celtic – to local schools.

I belong to Glasgow

Also known for their fun loving nature, Glaswegians enjoy a night out on the town. A famous Glasgow song now sung all over the world, sums this up:

I belong to Glasgow

I belang tae Glesga, dear old Glesga toon

But what’s the matter wi Glesga, for it’s goin’ round an roun’

I’m only a common old working chap, as anyone here can see,

But when I get a couple o’ drinks on a Setterday,

Glesga belongs tae me!!!!!!

(penned by Will Fyffe)

Famous Glaswegians

Glasgow has a thriving club scene and has produced an impressive list of famous bands. These include Belle & Sebastian, BMX Bandits, Franz Ferdinand, Mogwai, Soup Dragons, Simple Minds and Travis. Famous authors from Glasgow also abound: James Kelman, Liz Lochhead, Alasdair Gray and A.L.Kennedy are just a few.
