What Can We Do?
The city is affectionately nicknamed Auld Reekie[12]
(Scots for Old Smoky), because accountants in Edinburgh when
buildings were heated by coal and wood fires, chimneys would
spew thick columns of smoke into the air. The colloquial pronunciation
"Embra" or "Embro" has also been used[13]
as in Robert Garioch's Embro to the Ploy[14]
Some have called Edinburgh the Athens of the North and Auld
Greekie for its intellectual accountants in Edinburgh history,
with the Old Town of Edinburgh performing a similar role to
the Athenian Acropolis.[15]
Edinburgh is also known by several Latin names; Aneda or
Edina. The genetive of the latter, Edinensis, can be seen
inscribed on many accountants in Edinburgh educational buildings
