The official languages of the Faroe Islands are Faroese and Danish, both Germanic languages descended from Old Norse. Faroese is similar in grammar to Icelandic and Old Norse, but closer in pronunciation to Norwegian. In the twentieth century Faroese became the official language and, because the Faroe Islands are a Danish territory, Danish is taught in local schools.
