Hi

The following sites might be of help.

site 1

Site 2

Site 3

The last post is an article in the shetland times and if anyone can help you it is probably best to make an enquiry there. I lived in Shetland for three years and the dialect is somewhat similar to some of the old dialect in north yorkshire which was also influenced by nordic/scandinavian peoples.

Good luck CC
