What does this mean?

[Psuedosudocrem]

At work today a customer said I had a "right teuchter accent". I'm not entirely sure what that means, but guessing it's not a compliment?

It’s not a compliment, and it’s not an insult. Teuchter is someone from the countryside -well it is where I’m from, which is coastal

I'd say it's an accent from up north, like Perth upwards.
Not an insult.

I'm from the best spoken English in the country. Allegedly

Teuchter is like country aberdonian. So that doesnt make sense!

No way is anyone mistaking me for any form of Aberdonian. Completely different accent.

I'm from the best spoken English in the country. Allegedly

Where’s that then? I’m new to Scotland and nosey about accents.

It means you sound like your from up north, like the Highlands or countryside.

I'm a heuchter teuchter! A person from the far north of Scotland!
Op, are you from the city of rubber bumpers? Right enough?
You may also be a teuchter. Sorry to break it to you!

Indeed I am from the home of rubber bumpers. You are right enough

The Sneck.

Broad doric style country accent yup

Still call it sneckie! I'm nae far from you and have been described as a posh teuchter!

No, no, no! Doric is a whole other ballgame!

Had to google that, but now I know! Thanks.

TBH teuchter means anyone north of Cumbernauld and south of East Kilbride to me. Neither insult nor compliment.

I'm part teuchter, part Doric, part English. Quite the little mongrel!
I speak posh for ease now!

I grew up in Glasgow and teuchter referred to someone from the highlands/islands however i now live near Aberdeen where it is used to refer to someone from the countryside rather than from the city itself.

I remember Radio Clyde used to play "The Teuchter Tune" just after the 1pm news - this was fiddle and accordion music.

Teuchter is highlands and islands. Not Aberdonian/Doric.

Like that woman on Reporting Scotland who says scotLAND and does the weather. Anne someone.

Anne Lundon . She can roll her
R s too !

She's got a great accent. I think she's a native Gaelic speaker.

I think Anne Lundon is from Lewis.
