Language Notes

‘Ultima Thule’ is Latin for ‘furthest north’. ‘Hwal’ is pronounced ‘quarl’. The upper case words are place or surnames. The Shetland words are there for their music, but if readers wish, the lower case words may be translated by consulting the Shetland Dictionary or the Dictionary of the Scots Language.
