Journal article (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Alongside the species name skata (Dan. skade) 'magpie' (Pica pica) there is a word skjura f. (Icel. skjór). It is documented in the Icelandic sagas and has numerous variant pronunciations in Scandinavian dialects. In southern Sweden, we find sköra (schoura) and skära, in the west skera (skära), and in central Sweden skjura (East Swedish dialect skjårå). Forms occurring further north include skör(a) in western Dalarna and Jämtland, and skir in northern Dalarna, with the variants sker, skyr in the norternmost provinces. In different dialects the word is also found in the names of bird species such as the jay, Siberian jay, oystercatcher and nightjar, and in the names of bats. The origin of this word has long puzzled philologists. Otto von Friesen, in 1901, came closest to the truth when he suggested that it was cognate with Got. skewjan 'wander'. [...] The deeper semantic meaning of the word has until now remained unclear. A closer study of the passage in the Gothic Bible where Goth. skewjan 'walk, mander' appears, and of its counterparts in the Icelandic sagas and in Norwegian and Swedish dialects, clarifies the semantic content of this word as being ' to move to and fro, with dramatic or unpredictable movements'. I view of this, the word skjura 'magpie' can be ascribed the sense of 'one which moves hither and thither (to and fro) in the air or on the ground, in an irregular or seemingly random manner'.

Review (other academic/artistic)abstract
- The proceedings of the Sixth Nordic Dialectology Conference, held in Karjaa (Karis), Finland, on 12–16 August 1998, contain 28 of the 32 papers presented at the conference. The contributions span a wide geographical area, including discussions about Scandinavian dialects within the territories of Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland. In two of them, Finnish dialects are also examined. The three plenary lectures were given by the Dane Inge Lise Pedersen, the Norwegian Helge Sandøy and the Swede Gösta Bruce. They raised important questions of theory and method, arising to a signicifant extent from the speakers' involvement in dialect projects currently under way in the different Nordic countries. Themes addressed in other contributions included dialect in a perspective of change dialect and identity, and dialect and written language. Between them, the papers in this volume testify to a scholarly breadth, in terms of both the data studied and the theories and methods applied, a breadth which often confronts dialectologists with new issues and draws them into new partnerships.
