Etymology
Shetland use

- Jakobsen, Jakob
In the next place there are, in the Shetlandic, some words originating from prehistoric Norse [ur-nordisk], words that are lost in Old Norse itself, although the stems have been preserved in other words belonging to this language. Note the peculiar use in Shetlandic of O.N. annarr, second, and annarhvárr, every second one, used in Foula and Yell respectively, in sense of alternating, alternately, of sea and wind or rain, in the words adnasjur, adnakwi, annehwart and *atrahola [*aðrahvára], all ancient.
*annehwart [äᶇꞏꞏəhwa‘rtꞏ], adj. and adv., a) as adj.: irregular; changeable, of wind, alternating with calm, a a. wind; b) as adv.: in the expr. “to blaw [‘blow’] a.”; he blaws or is blawin’ a., it blows unsteadily; it is alternately wind and calm. Yh. Prop.: (coming) every other time. *annathvart, -hvárt, neut. from O.N. pron. annarhvarr, -hvárr, every second one. Cf. atrahola.
atrahola [at·rahō·la, ait·rahō·la (äi·tra-)], adj., prop. pron., chopping; intermittent; unsteady, occas. of wind with intermittent calm, occas. of alternating drizzling rain and dry weather (in dull weather); a. wadder [‘weather’]: hit [‘it’] is a. wi’ him, a) it varies between wind and calm, = he’s blawin’ annehwart (see annehwart); b) it drizzles and is dry at intervals, it is neither rainy nor dry weather. Yn. *aðrahvára, acc. f. sing. from O.N. annarhvárr, pron. every other; after “aðrahvára” a feminine noun is understood (ferð, f., a time; a turn). The change from r to l in -hola can be explained as dissimilation on acc. of the preceding r in atra-.
