The Youtube auto-transcription (press the CC button to view) of Glaswegian on this BBC Scotland comedy show is hilariously bad, though I'm not sure how most non-Scottish humans would do either.

examples: "not a care in the world" is repeated twice in the audio and translated as "the attack killed a lot of them" the first time and "months of camelot of" the second.
