  • It sounds like Norwegian NOT Faroese!

  • "Faroese: A Language Course for Beginners." When I first looked it up on Amazon about a year ago, there were two books accompanied by CD's: One for complete beginners, and another for those who'd already attained the basics. Unfortunately, it seems that Lockwood's work is once again the only one for those wishing to to study this language. Could anybody find a site where this work is NOT listed as "currently unavailable"?

  • og helviti hann dugur illa!

    that has nearly nothing to do with faroese language!

  • @Superniemeyer já þið færeyingar, elsku frændur

  • Are you Icelandic ? You have an Icelandic accent . A lot of the words were off ... my I say the same, very good attempt .

  • @Superniemeyer yesssss .... Føroyar er bestttt . He sounds Icelandic . Those Icelandic's .... always trying to act like us ;)

  • He clearly mentions that faroese is very unphonetic and that he wouldn't even come as close as the actual pronunciation.

  • @beini321 That wasn't my question.

  • @yurismir1 icelandic is a superior language :)

  • aha, ljódar meira sum Íslendskt?

    men ja, hann roynir ;)).
