Tae all Scots oot there!

I was just curious as too how may of you use slang Scottish words (although most are not slang)

For example:

potatoes OR tatties
turnip OR neeps

Yes OR Aye
No OR Naw
Child OR Bairn
Cold OR Baltic
Beautiful OR Braw
Dog OR Dug
Fizzy Drink OR Ginger
Please don’t do that OR Gonnae no dae that
Drunk OR Steamin
A good one OR Stoater
An idiot or fool OR Tube
Easy OR Skoosh
