Ulster Scots or Ulster-Scots (Ulstèr-Scotch, Irish: Albainis Uladh),[6][7] also known as Ulster Scotch and Ullans, is the dialect of Scots spoken in parts of Ulster in Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.[5][8][9] It is generally considered a dialect or group of dialects of Scots, although groups such as the Ulster-Scots Language Society[10] and Ulster-Scots Academy[11] consider it a language in its own right, and the Ulster-Scots Agency[12] and former Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure[13] have used the term Ulster-Scots language.
Some definitions of Ulster Scots may also include Standard English spoken with an Ulster Scots accent.[14][15] This is a situation like that of Lowland Scots and Scottish Standard English[16] with words pronounced using the Ulster Scots phonemes closest to those of Standard English.[16] Ulster Scots has been influenced by Hiberno-English, particularly Ulster English, and by Ulster Irish. As a result of the competing influences of English and Scots, varieties of Ulster Scots can be described as "more English" or "more Scots".[15]
