Frisian is a language and nationality native to the province of [[Friesland]] in the [[Netherlands]], but which was in ancient times far more extensive. Pockets of the language still exist in [[Germany]]. Frisian is the closest relative of [[English]], and exists in the coastal regions of the [[North Sea]] where the [[Anglo=Saxon]]s originated. Features which Frisian shares with English, but with no other Germanic language, include a vocalisation of certain consonants at the end of words.
