The Loch Ness Monster

Question: might "sith" be the Scots equivalent of the Irish "sidhe"?

I have a nephew that can speak Scots Gaelic, but he's never around when I have a question!

Yes Nin,
That's pretty much my understanding exactly.

The Scots Gaelic: "sith" (*pronounced Shee I think?) is indeed the same or equivalent to the Irish "Sidhe", meaning a faery / spirit / ghost or referring to the places associated with such creatures.

Probably came from the same roots I reckon.
