I notice that the Scots say 'time' after words which are self standing and do not need 'time' added to them. Here are some words which I have noticed today to which the Scots add 'time'. It is not an inclusive list.

Christmas
Summer
Winter
Evening.

Is it an equivalence to the user of the word 'wee'?

No one has explained the 'why' of it. Jews also say 'time' at the end of summer winter etc.. This is a puzzle indeed.
