Scotch
For other uses, see Scotch (disambiguation), Scottish (disambiguation), or Scots (disambiguation).
Scotch is an adjective meaning 'of Scotland', now usually pejorative. Common contemporary usage is Scottish or Scots, but Scotch is still in occasional contemporary use outside Scotland. "Scotch" should only pertain to specific products, usually food or drink, such as scotch whisky, scotch pie, scotch broth or scotch eggs.
