Zetlandn.

Brit.

/ˈzɛtlənd/, U.S.

/ˈzɛtlənd/

Forms:

α. Scottish pre-1700 Ȝeitland, pre-1700 Ȝetland, pre-1700 Yetland.

β. 1600s– Zetland.

Origin: From a proper name. Etymons: proper name Zetland, Shetland.

Etymology: < Zetland, †Ȝetland, †Yetland (1506 or earlier), Scots variants of the name of Shetland (see Shetland n.).In early use in Scots, the initial z- of the β. forms represents the initial palatal glide (/j/) which is represented more transparently in the α. forms (see discussion at G n. and Z n.). This initial glide is also reflected in the post-classical Latin form of the place name Yhetlandia (see Shetland n.). Compare also Norn (Shetland) Yealtaland (a1700, reported in an English context). The current spelling pronunciation (with initial /z/) arose in the 19th cent. As a place name, the form Zetland survives in some official and formalized uses, such as the name of the former County of Zetland (until 1974), and in the title of the Marquess of Zetland.

Now rare.

attributive. Designating things (esp. articles of trade and animals) imported from, associated with, or otherwise characteristic of the Shetland Islands. Cf. Shetland n.
