I don’t think anything in @edinbruh@feddit.it’s comment is particularly Celtic/Gaelic-inspired.
Banging is slang for hot. Pal means friend. Shag means have sex with. They’re all fairly common slang in the English language even outside of Scotland. Mostly in England, but elsewhere in the Commonwealth most people would be familiar with the terms, even if it wouldn’t be the first slang term they themselves would use.

No idea. The Doric branch of Scots is something else, it’s wild. Even if two people local to a particular area from thirty or forty miles away are gabbin awa to each other, I can just about follow the thread of the conversation but I couldn’t pick out every single word.
