Maw is a common Scottish word for mother, however it can be used in many other situations where "mum", would not be at all appropriate! Instead of saying "No, I don't agree with that", one can simply say "Aye,
yer maw", and
walk away - by far the superior choice for those busy those of us with have more pressing matters to attend to.
1. "
Your maw is braw (tasty/
babelicious)"
2. Person 1. "Naw, yer fish"
3. Person 2. "Naw
yer maw" (person 2 clearly wins the argument, it's easy when you know how)
