Although Irish and Manx are often referred to as Irish Gaelic and Manx Gaelic (as they are Goidelic or Gaelic languages), the use of the word ''Gaelic'' is unnecessary because the terms Irish and Manx, when referring to language, only ever refer to these languages, whereas [[Scots language|Scots]] has come to refer to a [[Germanic languages|Germanic language]], and therefore "Scottish" can refer to things not at all Gaelic. The word ''Gaelic'' by itself is sometimes used to refer to Scottish Gaelic and is thus [[ambiguous]].
