When a was peerie a loved learning Shetland dialect - what a didn’t know was just how many accents exist in this island group of ~23,000 folk!

If you’re interested in #shetland dialect check out the link to hear the various accents & sound files! It’s really interesting & I find it really comforting and soothing to listen to. #scotland #scots #uk

If you’re interested in Shetland poetry may I suggest Hannah Nicholson (@bookishselkie) who posts her work fairly often in the dialect - support her if you’re able to! #poetry #writing #languages #uk #scotland #shetland
