Yes, there is a difference between a lord and a laird. A lord is a title of nobility in the peerage system, typically higher in rank than a laird. A laird is a Scottish term for a landowner or a person who holds a title of nobility in Scotland, often associated with owning a large estate or property.
A laird and a lord are not exactly the same, though they are related terms. A laird is a Scottish term for a landowner, typically of a large estate, and does not necessarily have noble status. In contrast, a lord is a broader term that can refer to various ranks of nobility or aristocracy in the UK and other countries. While all lairds can be considered lords in the sense of landownership, not all lords are lairds.
