I am finishing up the final draft of my first historical novel, I want to make sure that all my spelling is correct. If you know how to "Spell it how they say it" please help me. I know some words such as dinna' aye canna'
I mostly have taken the spellings from other books I've read. Please help

Hello, Julie_t. Greetings from Glasgow, and welcome to Scotland.com! Could you tell us which area/region your book is set in, and perhaps post a list of the words you are wondering about, please.

I once found a very good site for this, but can't recall it now.
