 Frisian language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Frisian is a Germanic language, or group of closely related languages, spoken by around half a million members of an ethnic group living on the southern fringes of the North Sea in the Netherlands and Germany.
While many of these Frisians live on the mainland, most are found on the islands, notably Sylt, Föhr, Amrum, and Heligoland.
There is such a large difference between the island and mainland forms of North Frisian that it has been speculated that the mainland and insular areas were settled by separate waves of ancient Frisian colonizers in different eras.
