'''Faroese ''' (''islenska'') is besides Danish the official language of [[Faroe Islands]]. It is one of the most well-preserved languages in the world. The alphabet contains letters not found in the English alphabet, such as æ, ð and þ.
Of all the North [[Germanic languages]], Faroese is the closest to [[Old Norse]], along with [[Icelandic language|Icelandic]]. A speaker of modern Faroese can read and understand the Old Norse sagas with little difficulty.
