Deeside Gaelic is an extinct dialect of Scottish Gaelic spoken in Aberdeenshire until 1984. Unlike a lot of extinct dialects of Scottish Gaelic, it is relatively well attested. A lot of the work pertaining to Deeside Gaelic was done by Frances Carney Diack, and was expanded upon by David Clement, Adam Watson and Seumas Grannd.
