You are probably thinking of Scottish English or Scots English, which is essentially English of some words and phrases from Scots and a very strong accent.
Scots proper is as much a language of its own as English is.
Scots and what we now think of as English arguably have a similar age and a lot of shared heritage, though obviously given how much separation, invading and other reasons for variation & remixing of languages has gone on over time, it is tricky to tie down completely what came from where when.
