Kind of? But at the same time, hearing Scottish and reading Scottish are very different if you don't understand that language. And I think half the humour is understanding the lingo. But look up Janey Godley voiceovers on youtube. That will give you an idea.
That's kind of what I was wondering -- I have a number of Scottish friends, and while in general I understand what they say, I'm reasonably sure that they moderate their vocabulary around Australians who are not also Scots.
