By the late 16th century almost all writing was composed in a mixture of Scots and English spellings, the English forms slowly becoming more common so that by the end of the 17th century Scots spellings had almost disappeared completely.
Do kasnog 16. stoljeća gotovo svi tekstovi su pisani mješavinom scotsa i engleskog jezika, engleski oblici su polako postajali češćim tako da do kraja 17. stoljeća gotovo nestaje pisanje po pravopisu scotsa.
