Scottish slang for "did not"
"Dinnae say sorry, you dinnae do nothing wrong."
Means Don't this is a correction of the other word in this dictionary who say 'Scottish' people use the word when it is atcually Edinburghians (people from Edinburgh, Scotland) who use this word. It is usually accompanied by 'ken' meaning know also used by Edinburghians not Glaswegian's.
I dinnae ken! Meaning I don't know!
