Irismay - Did you not read my last post trying to help you. Fibnacci has reminded you of it. Perhaps next time you will get it right. 

i assume the word posterity is a typo... you meant to retypethe last word prosperity again for some reason?

....sonsie...?

Sonse is a noun and sonsie is an adjective.

The Online Scots Dictionary shows

"sonse [sons]
n. Good fortune or luck, prosperity, abundance."

and

sonsie [ˈsonse]
adj. Enjoying good fortune, fortunate, prosperous, attended by good luck. Engaging and friendly in appearance or manner, hearty, jolly. Of people: sound, sensible, shrewd. Of women: comely, attractive, good-looking. In respect of the figure: buxom, plump. Of things or personifications: fine handsome, impressive, pleasant, cheery. Big, ample, roomy, capacious, substantial, abundant, characterised by plenty."

The definition for "sonse" is a better fit so I would go with that rather than, "sonsie".

Sonse fits the letter count and crossers (it's from a crossword, not a quiz)

In Scots language, the term "well-being" encompasses a rich tapestry of meanings, ranging from physical health to overall prosperity. Rooted in a culture that values community and resilience, Scots understand well-being as more than just the absence of illness—it's about thriving in every aspect of life. Whether it's through traditional remedies or modern healthcare practices, prioritizing well-being is a cornerstone of Scottish identity.
