Languages of the Highlands & Grampian

Historically Inverness has had a predominantly Gaelic-speaking population. However, over the 19th and 20th centuries the number of Gaelic speakers steadily declined. Today, only around 5% of people are fluent in the traditional language.

While Gaelic might not be heard in its full form, the historic language has left an indelible mark on the regional variety of English – for those unaccustomed it might take a while to understand.

Although the Highlands are predominantly an English speaking area, over the past decade the number of non-English/Gaelic speakers has steadily increased. The most widely spoken language other than English is Polish followed closely by Lithuanian and Russian.
