Idiom: I am just a wee bit lazy

[Hanygeorge38]

Dear Teachers

could you please explain to me the idioms in the following :

( I am just a wee bit lazy)

and what is meant by MS in the following passage

I also love mysteries but almost never solve them on my own.
I cold blame that on the MS (which is a brain disease, you know),
but before I ever got the disease, I was never clever enough to
figure out 'who done it'.

Thanks

Your diagnose may be correct!

Greetings hanygeorge38,
Your question about the sentence... I am a wee bit lazy... is quite easy
to answer. That small word "wee" is exactly that - small or little.
It comes from Scotland. The language of the Scots spoken today,
has many `words of Gaelic origin? and alot of `slang words?
which a normal English speaker wouldn?t understand.
So the sentence simply means - I am a little bit lazy.

A few more examples of the word "wee" may help here :

1. Would you like a wee dram of whisky in your coffee?
2. Wait a wee moment! I can not find my glasses.
3. It?s a wee bit late to be drinking tea, it?s time for whisky.

The Scots is a difficult accent to understand. In Edinburgh you should
be able to grasp it but in Glasgow you will probably need a translator.
By the way, the word "Mac" or "Mc" is from the Gaelic and means "Son"
as in McDonald, MacDonald, MacKinley, McAlister ... meaning "Son of" Donald, Kinley and Alister.

Similar to the Irish "O" which means "of ", as in O?Brien, O?Connell, O?Niell etc.
... which means - Of Brien, Of Connell and Of Niell etc.

Now to the the MS question. Leo has answered that correctly.
... MS is the abbreviation/acronym for `multiple sclerosis?

the Dictionary?s version is :

multiple sclerosis - (n.)
a chronic progressive disease of the central nervous system,
resulting in speech and visual disorders, tremor,
muscular inco-ordination, partial paralysis etc.

Finally, my answer to the `who done it? question can be seen at
the following link in answer to Andreana?s posting about the
"red herring". See this link :

What does this idiom mean: "read herring"?

Best Wishes,

Bruce
