Coorie

Coorie is a Scots word meaning "to stoop, bend, cringe, crouch for protection"[1][2][3] and "to snuggle, nestle.

"[1] It has been positioned as a "lifestyle trend,"[4][5][6][7][8][9] similar to the Scandinavian concept of hygge, which involves ideas such as cosiness.

In 2017, the Scottish tourist authority promoted còsagach – a Gaelic word which they suggested meant "snug, sheltered or cosy" but which can also mean a damp, mossy nook or cranny.

[10][11] The best-selling book The Art of Coorie[5] in 2018 suggested that coorie is a well-established concept involving hearty Scottish cuisine, such as Cullen skink, and invigorating outdoor activities such as swimming in lochs.
