THE OLD SHETLAND DIALECT . “ N LY 700 years ago a language called D on sk ” r tunga, or Danish tongue was spread ove e r nearly th whole north of Eu ope . It was not at all confined to Denmar k : it was spoken in Scandinavia (Denmark, Norway and Sweden), whose centre it was ; it was spoken in Iceland , Faroe, O Shetland , rkney , to a great extent in the western M a n Scottish Isles , the Isle of , and also to some Br t —in extent in i ain itself part of Scotland , especially th e th e r of in the north and along coast, in no th r r th e England and pa t of I eland , and finally along r south and east borde of the Baltic Sea . It was the Scandinavian vikings who carried the Danish tongue : so far the Norwegians and Danes went west, the Norwegians taking a more northerly, the Danes a r r t mo e southe ly direction (in Sco land , and especially A 2 THE OLD SHETLAND DIALECT . the islands north of Scotland , it was chiefly the Nor wegian s who settled ; in England it was the Danes) ; the Swedes went more to the eastward and occupied h e B . t m f. i east border of the altic Sea, and even for ed R a little kingdom in the heart of ussia. I need not here say much about how Shetland f was peopled , first by Picts, who came rom Scotland , e and th n by Norwegians, especially those who at the th r th e fl close of the 9 centu y crossed North Sea, y ing from the tyranny of King Harald Haarfa ger and s trying to find new home . It is a general belief that r th the No semen extinguished e Picts in Shetland . But it was not the custom of the Norsemen to kill — those who did not oppose t hem sword in hand a t r m any rate, they would neve have killed the wo en . d And besi es, we are not told anyt hing about the fled r r Picts having anywhe e from Shetland.

Even if one or two ships of the Spanish Ar mada should have been wrecked on the Shetland coast, and even if a case t or two of inter mar r iage should have aken place, it would not have affected whole communit ies. Shetland originally belonged to Norway up t ill th e 1 r t the end of 4th century, when No way en ered t m r s s r in o a union with Den ark unde a Dani h ove eign , and Shetland as par t of Norway passed over into r me this union . As Denma k beca the leading country th e - a - of the two, fact that Shetland people now days always speak of the islands as formerly belonging to m r is for s Den a k , to be accounted in thi way.

  • The Norse Element in the Orkney Dialect Donna Heddle
    The Norse element in the Orkney dialect Donna Heddle 1. Introduction The Orkney and Shetland Islands, along with Caithness on the Scottish mainland, are identified primarily in terms of their Norse cultural heritage. Linguistically, in particular, such a focus is an imperative for maintaining cultural identity in the Northern Isles. This paper will focus on placing the rise and fall of Orkney Norn in its geographical, social, and historical context and will attempt to examine the remnants of the Norn substrate in the modern dialect. Cultural affiliation and conflict is what ultimately drives most issues of identity politics in the modern world. Nowhere are these issues more overtly stated than in language politics. We cannot study language in isolation; we must look at context and acculturation. An interdisciplinary study of language in context is fundamental to the understanding of cultural identity. This politicising of language involves issues of cultural inheritance: acculturation is therefore central to our understanding of identity, its internal diversity, and the porousness or otherwise of a language or language variant‘s cultural borders with its linguistic neighbours. Although elements within Lowland Scotland postulated a Germanic origin myth for itself in the nineteenth century, Highlands and Islands Scottish cultural identity has traditionally allied itself to the Celtic origin myth. This is diametrically opposed to the cultural heritage of Scotland‘s most northerly island communities. 2. History For almost a thousand years the language of the Orkney Islands was a variant of Norse known as Norroena or Norn. The distinctive and culturally unique qualities of the Orkney dialect spoken in the islands today derive from this West Norse based sister language of Faroese, which Hansen, Jacobsen and Weyhe note also developed from Norse brought in by settlers in the ninth century and from early Icelandic (2003: 157).

The Main- land is the main island in the Shetland Islands, and 168 km to the Scotland in its south. The Shetland Islands are consisted of 1,018 islands and islets, in which the area of each island or islet is more than 6 m2. The total area of the Shetland Islands is 1,491.33 km2, and the coastline is 2,060.13 km long[1]. There are only 23 islands with each area more than 1 km2 in the Shetland Islands (Table 1), account- ing for 2% of the total number of islands and 98.67% of the total area of the islands.

  • Geography, Background Information, Civil Parishes and Islands
    Geography – Background Information – Civil Parishes and Islands Civil Parishes Geography Branch first began plotting postcode boundaries in 1973. In addition to the creation of postcode boundaries, Geography Branch also assigned each postcode to an array of Scottish boundary datasets including civil parish boundaries. From 1845 to 1930, civil parishes formed part of Scotland’s local government system. The parishes, which had their origins in the ecclesiastical parishes of the Church of Scotland, often overlapped the then existing county boundaries, largely because they reflected earlier territorial divisions. Parishes have had no direct administrative function in Scotland since 1930. In 1930, all parishes were grouped into elected district councils. These districts were abolished in 1975, and the new local authorities established in that year often cut across civil parish boundaries. In 1996, there was a further re-organisation of Scottish local government, and a number of civil parishes now lie in two or more council areas. There are 871 civil parishes in Scotland. The civil parish boundary dataset is the responsibility of Geography Branch. The initial version of the boundaries was first created in the mid-1960s. The boundaries were plotted on to Ordnance Survey 1:10,000 maps using the written descriptions of the parishes. In the late 1980s Geography Branch introduced a Geographic Information System (called ‘GenaMap’) to its working practices. At this point the manually-plotted civil parish boundaries were digitised using the GenaMap system. In 2006, GenaMap was replaced by ESRI’s ArcGIS product, and the civil parish boundaries were migrated to the new system. At this stage, the Ordnance Survey digital product MasterMap was made available as the background map for Geography Branch’s digitising requirements.

  • Norn Elements in the Shetland Dialect
    Hugvísindadeild Norn elements in the Shetland dialect A Historical and Linguistic Review B.A. Essay Auður Dagný Jónsdóttir September, 2013 University of Iceland Faculty of Humanities Department of English Norn elements in the Shetland dialect A Historical and Linguistic Review B.A. Essay Auður Dagný Jónsdóttir Kt.: 270172-5129 Supervisors: Þórhallur Eyþórsson and Pétur Knútsson September, 2013 2 Abstract The languages spoken in Shetland for the last twelve hundred years have ranged from Pictish, Norn to Shetland Scots. The Norn language started to form after the settlements of the Norwegian Vikings in Shetland. When the islands came under the British Crown, Norn was no longer the official language and slowly declined. One of the main reasons the Norn vernacular lived as long as it did, must have been the distance from the mainland of Scotland. Norn was last heard as a mother tongue in the 19th century even though it generally ceased to be spoken in people’s daily life in the 18th century. Some of the elements of Norn, mainly lexis, have been preserved in the Shetland dialect today. Phonetic feature have also been preserved, for example is the consonant’s duration in the Shetland dialect closer to the Norwegian language compared to Scottish Standard English. Recent researches indicate that there is dialectal loss among young adults in Lerwick, where fifty percent of them use only part of the Shetland dialect while the rest speaks Scottish Standard English. 3 Contents 1.
