A TikTok video of a Disney actor's attempt at a Scottish accent has gone viral.
The woman was dressed as Princess Merida from Brave while she interacted with a fan in character at Walt Disney World.
It has since received over 50,000 likes, but many commented on the actor's struggle with speaking in a Scottish accent, with some comparing it to both Canadian and Irish accents.
One person commented: "Haha that Scottish accent."
Another said: "Cries in Scottish."
A third added: "Wow, that accent was a tour of the world."
A fourth joked: "I am Spanish and I feel I sound more Scottish."

Released in 2012, Brave is set in medieval Scotland and Glasgow actress Kelly Macdonald provides the voice for Merida, the only Scottish Disney princess to date.
Other well-known Scots actors such as Sir Billy Connolly and the late Robbie Coltrane also feature in the Pixar film.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
