Finally getting around to making a user page for myself, hey.
Going to stick some things in here and whatnot. Coming soon I guess
- A few things I want to remember thinking about:
- Note "sen" used in Nynorn lessons and texts, which is found in Hildina entirely regularly as "sin". Another appearance of -en being -in in west shetland dialect. I'm not entirely sure if/where "sen" shows up in the Old Norn corpus, but I do believe it to have been the likely mainland dialect form derived from ON "sem".
- W becoming V seems to be the vast majority of cases when initial and after vowels; the existence of recorded forms with "W" instead of "V" is likely the influence of Shetland. Meanwhile, after a consonant, W appears to regularly be retained. See words such as "swara" in Hildina.
