They show us good Scottish ways (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

guides

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'they show us' is the definition.
The definition suggests an adverb but the answer is not.

'good scottish ways' is the wordplay.
'good scottish' becomes 'guid' (Scottish version of 'good').
'ways' becomes 'es' (east and south - two directions).
'guid'+'es'='GUIDES'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for guides that I've seen before include "Directs or steers" , "They show others the way - may be girls" , "Persons leading mountaineers etc" , "Shows the way" , "Leads or conducts" .)
