Subject: Scottish Settlement in Italy
I need any useful information about Scottish settlements in Italy. As far
as I know there should be one in some of the central Italian regions, but
I'd like to have some more detailed information (exact place, history of
this settlement), because I'd like to study their language (whether or nor
it's been influenced by the Italian language.)
Thank you very much in advance to anyone able to give me any useful
information!

Dear Linguists,
Are you aware of any software for doing transliteration of such standard
and canonical texts as the Koran. By transliteration, I mean romanization
of the text so that the text could be more accessible to those who are
unfamiliar with the Arabic script could read standard and classical Arabic
texts.
I will be grateful for your reply and cooperation.
Kind regards,
Rho Hi
