Cait Sith is Scottish?

Ya, what do those Americans know eh? :lol: Ima Bush-hatin Canadian :lol: But seriously, I thought that Cait Sith was funny in the movie. Hated the idiot in the game, but he was really funny in the movie. As I remember he said these things:

"Here we Gooooo!!!!"- cries out when Nanaki throws Cloud up further towards Bahamut SIN

"Lassie, Shut yer Boos!"- yelled at Yuffie when she was being *ahem* unbiased

"Dat's a smart buoy Cloud!"-said after Cloud defeated Sephiroth

No, none of those are spelling errors (such as buoy). I wrote them as they said. As I have Scottish lineage (and have read up on it just a little ;) ), I know what he was saying and it impresses such (this is based on what I know and understand about the Scottish accent)

"Let's gooo!"

"Shut up you stupid girl!"

"Alright! Great job Cloud!"

This is not based on Scottish translation, but is based on what the impression was at the time and p[lace he said it. I was personally very insulted that he rode on Nanaki like some common horse. NANAKI ONLY GOT 1 BLOODY LIN IN THE WHOLE MOVIE: "There are still children with the Stigma."
 
I remember someone posted in another forum somewhere that Cait Sith speaks scottish because Cait Sith is actually a name or something along that line that is infact scottish. So that was a very clear reason to me as to why Cait Sith speaks scottish.

No.

"Here we gooooooooooooooo" = Here we go.
"Lassie, shut yer boos!" = Shut up.
"Dat's a smart buoy, Cloud!" = You're smart, Cloud.

Much more simple than you've made it out to be :P
 
What did I just say about insulting? :dry: :devil2:

Why do you Americans think any accent but your own is strange?
;)

Personally being an American I happen to find all other foreign accents sexy ;)

Indeed, there is a creature from Celtic Mythology called Cait Sith/Cat Sidhe who took the form of a cat and stalked the Scottish Highlands.

Bearing that in mind, I'm still not fond of the Scottish accent. I would have preferred a quirky American voice by someone like Cam Clarke or Rob Paulsen. ^^
 
maybe the actor who gave his voice to Cait Sith is Scottish.
but this doesn't prove if Cait Sith is.

just like Rosso in Doc,in the english version of the game it is said that her accent is a Russian's,but nowhere in her biography says that she's from Russia.

Cait Sith's English voice actor is Greg Ellis, who actually puts on the Scottish accent.

Cait Sith is Scottish to us, but the FFVII universe is a separate one altogether. Therefore his accent may be referred to as something else.

The world of FFVII has many different cultures, such as Wutai - which is essentially a Japanese region. The Costa Del Sol - the name of a real Spanish resort. Even many parts of Midgar has Japanese signs and references. This way, Gaia has a lot of familiarity with our own world, and comes across just as diverse and multicultural.
 
i still dont know why you people are making a whole thread to see if cait sith is scottish
ill just watch the movie and not care if he is scottish or not

Like we don't hear that in every international production.

Like I say, you could ask "why do they have American accents?", because America is nowhere mentioned in VII. Therefore, Scottish accents/people have just as much right (and about time) to feature in this.
 
Personally, I thought it was just funny how he was scottish. I imagined him having a thinner, less noticeable voice, much like the Americans :P

Scottish people in general are funny (not wierd funny, haha funny) and know how to crack a good joke nowadays.

And, believe it or not to all you Americans and fellow Canadians out there, THE WHOLE WORLD THINKS YOU HAVE AN ACCENT :lol: To everybody else, we have accents. Nobody thinks that they have an accent (unless they can see from another persons perspective). I can personally talk in several accents almost flawlessly:

Canadian eh? (newfie)
Merry ol' English (British)
George Dubya (Texas)
El Cid (Spanish)
Cait Sith (Scottish)
Go laddy! (Irish)
Oui allo! (French)
Bonjourno Signoras (Italian)
Singing voice: Domo Aregato (Japanese)
Thank you come again :D (East Indian/Pakistani)

And many, many more.

I apologise personally to anyone who finds my enjoyment of using these accents offensive. I don't do it in mockery, just in good fun (escept for singing in Japanese, that I do out of habit)
