Excerpt from A Glossary of the Shetland Dialect The object which I have in view in publishing this Glossary is to help to preserve what yet remains among us of our old Norn language, and at the same time to give a fair sample of our dialect as it was spoken in the nineteenth century, and on to the present time. I have endeavoured to make my vocabulary something more than a mere list of words. A list of words may be interesting to the philologist, but it can be little practical use to an ordinary person. By marks to denote the different vowel sounds, I have given the common pronunciation, and by quotations of colloquial phrases I have tried to show the idioms of our vernacular speech, so that a stranger may see the peculiarities that make it a distinct dialect.

Excerpt from An Etymological Glossary of the Shetland Orkney Dialect: With Some Derivations of Names of Places in Shetland, (Partly Read at Two Meetings of the Philological Society in the Spring of 1866) In offering these pages to the kind forbearance of his friends and the public, the author is aware of their many imperfections. He gratefully acknowledges his indebtedness to those friends who take a warm interest in the preservation of the dialect peculiar to the far north, and who have demonstrated that interest by supplying material for this work. Some four hundred of the words and phrases in this Vocabulary are to be found in that noble work Jamieson's Scottish Dictionary. The writer must acknowledge his special obligations to the MSS. left by the late Mr. William Grant, a Shetlander of considerable linguistic attainments, and of cultivated mind. A large number of words, which had escaped the author's research, were found among Mr. Grants papers, and the derivations of the names of islands, places, etc., are in many cases also from his pen. Valuable assistance has also been received from the very Rev. Thomas Barclay, D.D., Principal of the College of Glasgow - assistance which is here most gratefully acknowledged.

Excerpt from The Dialect and Place Names of Shetland: Two Popular Lectures During the years 1893-94-95, Mr Jakob Jakobsen, Cand. Mag. Of the University of Copenhagen, conducted an exhaustive series of investigations into the remains of the old Norse language in Shetland. Some of the te sults of his enquiries are embodied in these two Lectures, which were cast in a popular form, and were delivered at Lerwick and other places in Shetland before the author's return to Denmark. Other results of his in vestigations are contained in his Thesis entitled, Det Noronne Sprog paa Shetland, which was accepted by the University of Copenhagen as entitling him to the degree of Doctor of Philosophy.
