Editing Dialect continuum (section)

==== Anglic continuum ====
The [[Anglic languages|Germanic dialects spoken on the island of Great Britain]] comprise areal varieties of English in England and of [[Scots language|Scots]] in Scotland. Those of large areas north and south of the border are often mutually intelligible. In contrast, the [[Orcadian dialect]] of Scots is very different from the dialects of [[English in southern England]]—but they are linked by a chain of intermediate varieties.
