Etymology 2
Shetland use
- An Etymological Dictionary of the Norn Language in Shetland (1928–1932)
- Jakobsen, Jakob
hwar [hwār], adv. 1) interrogative: where; also whither. 2) rel.: where, (there) where, (to) where. — h. till, h. tø [‘to’], a) whither, where; b) for what, to what purpose, why (Nm.). On. Wests., etc.: kwar [kwār]. — O.N. hvar, adv., where, whither.
Interrogative pronoun
- hvar
- where
- Synonym: hvarna
- where ... (to), whereto, whither
- Synonyms: hvagar, hvartil
Sources and notes
- Meaning 1 based on Jakobsen and the Nynorn Dictionary (not mentioned in Tutorial); synonym hvarna for where based on Nynorn Tutorial (Lesson Eight)
- Meaning 2 based on Jakobsen and the Nynorn Dictionary (not mentioned in Tutorial); synonyms hvagar, hvartil for whither based on Nynorn Tutorial (Lesson Eight)
- Jakobsen does not mention hvarna (hwarna, kwarna) from the Kwarna farna sample, compare Westrobothnian hvarna < ON hvaðan af 'where from')
- To do
- Add use as relative pronoun (official material should mention somewhere that all interrogative pronouns except ner are equivalent to their relative pronouns)
- Add meaning "why; what for" if confirmed to exist in Nynorn
