As man and dinosaur cross the ridge the Tyrannosaurus Rex is left out of puff on the hill behind.
The Scottish Word:

Jabbit.

Nae worries Tri-Horn auld pal, it’s a jabbit ‘n dune Rex wiv left ahent us pechin oot his lungs oer thon daunder o a sklent.

Ah doot he’ll mak it up the rest o the brae – and for us it’s an easy jog aw doonhill noo.

Translate:

jabbit: exhausted, tired.

No worries Tri-Horn my old friend, it is an exhausted and done Rex we’ve left behind us there puffing out his lungs over that there easy stroll of an incline.

I doubt that he will make it up the rest of the slope – and for us it is an easy jog all downhill now.
