I worked in Aberdeen for ages, some of the ones I like are:

Baffies  = Slippers

Napper  = head

Beets  = Boots

Fitba  = football

Foos ya doos  = how are you doing

Fit like loon  = hows it going boy

Clarty  = dirty. As in, ya clarty bas*ard

Rowies  = bread roll

they like adding a "Y" or "ies" on the end of some words for no reason?? as in, we're arf fer a few pinties the night ta wa sel blootered

Huuby didn't know what a simmit was !
As in, "it's awfie cauld the day, away an' pit on yer simmit"
And he's an Aberdoninan thought he might have had a clue
It's a vest, btw !
But this wee gem made me laugh !
Are you Scottish ? I am. You know you are a true Scot if ye can properly pronounce McConnochie, Ecclefechan, Sauchiehall Street, St Enoch, Auchtermuchty & Aufurfuksake. (edit if appropriate Dan & Rosemary )
Yer used tae 4 seasons in wan day. Ye kin faw aboot pished without spilling yer drink. Ye kin make hael sentences jist wi swear wurds.Ye know irn bru is a hangover cure. Ye actually understand this message and yurr gonnae send it tae yer pals

I ken fine fit a that is a aboot, Karen, cos I wis barn n bred in aiberdeen!

[ellied]

y or ies at the end is common around here (Fife/Tayside) meaning a wee one tho it might not be quite so wee

Others I like are the bidie in (live in partner) and dreich (the most common weather and it just says it all - grey, damp.. )

The most annoying Fife habit is adding eh or eh? at the end of every sentence  or even every 4 words - more south Fife than here but still

iv got the shetland cow centenary book - now that needs a dictionary - they seem to call cows - coos, so thats easy, then they call them kyes, dont know if that means incalf?? i just guess

[doganjo]

And the way they say 'cheerio' intrigues me, I say cheer-y-o - but down here it's Chir O

And I love being called pal, doll, darlin, hen.  Up the road it was always 'dear' and I cannot stand being called 'dear' by people who don't know me.

kyes is younger animals female

When I was a child living adjacent to a dairy farm (nearly half a century ago), the cows were called in for milking by the dairyman standing at the gate & calling KYES, KYES.  The dairy cattle duly wandered up & into their favourate stalls without any further instruction.
