Walter Sutherland (Norn) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Walter Sutherland (Norn) Walter Sutherland (died ''ca''. 1850) of Skaw on the island of Unst in Shetland was reported to be the last native speaker of Norn, a Germanic language which had once been spoken throughout Shetland, Orkney and Caithness.〔''North-western European language evolution: NOWELE'', vols. 50-51 (Odense University Press, 2007), p. 240〕〔(Area Guide Unst )〕 He lived in the northernmost house in the British Isles, near the present-day Unst Boat Haven.〔June Skinner Sawyers, ''Maverick guide to Scotland'' (2000), p. 557〕 Sutherland may, however, have been merely the last native speaker of Norn on Unst. Some unnamed Norn-speakers of Foula were reported by Jakob Jakobsen to have survived much later than the middle of the 19th century.〔P. Sture Ureland, George Broderick, eds., ''Language contact in the British Isles: proceedings of the Eighth International Symposium on Language Contact in Europe, Douglas, Isle of Man, 1988'' (M. Niemeyer, 1991), p. 455〕 ==Notes==
