Most students want to write about an area that interests them and that can be used in practice. Therefore many want to work on something that is relevant to Faroese conditions.

MFS has heard that a new regulation on military conscription for Faroese people in Denmark came into effect on January 1. This means that those who have lived more than 10 consecutive years in the Faroe Islands are now completely exempt from military conscription. MFS knows of several Faroese people who have already re... | BLARK_translated | MFS hevur frætt, at 1. januar kom nýggj reglugerð um hernaðarskyldu fyri føroyingar í Danmark.

The editorial: The editorial in Fjølnir 6/1999 deals with what readers expect from Faroese authorities. | BLARK_translated | Leiðarin: Leiðarin í Fjølni 6/1999 snúi seg um hvat lesandi vænta sær av Føroyskum mynduleikum. |
This included, among other things, that the supplementary grant should be a sum of money instead of a travel ticket; that Faroese businesses should support the students by offering them a place at home to write assignments; and that Faroese funds should be established to support Faroese students. | BLARK_translated | Hetta var millum annað, at ískoytisstuðulin átti at vera ein peningaupphædd í staðin fyri ein ferðaseðil; at føroyska vinnulívið átti at stuðla teimum lesandi við at bjóða teimum heim at skriva uppgávur og at føroyskir grunnar skuldu verið settir á stovn, ið stuðla føroyskum lesandi. |
So, all in all we can confirm that the decision by the Support Fund to give us cash is an advantage in that it is now possible to sail home or not go home at all and thereby save some money, while our circumstances have worsened, with fewer options to apply for travel grants. | BLARK_translated | So, alt í alt kunnu vit staðfesta, at avgerðin hjá Stuðulsstovninum, at geva okkum reiðan pening, er ein fyrimunur á tann hátt, at nú er møguligt at sigla heim ella als ikki fara heim og harvið spara eitt sindur av peningi, meðan umstøðurnar hjá okkum eru versnaðar, við at færri møguleikar eru fyri at søkja um ferðastu... |
One might be tempted to say that it is only those men who are already captured who dress smartly and in dark socks. This fits well with the fact that Faroese women have a reputation for being a little coy. They let themselves be “seduced” by the drunken Skarv-man only to take him home and quietly change him, because af... | BLARK_translated | Ein kann vera freistaður at siga, at tað einans eru tey mannfólkini sum longu eru fangað sum ganga smart ílatnir og í myrkum sokkum. Hetta hongur væl saman við, at føroysk konufólk hava orð fyri at vera smá grussut. Tær lata seg "forføra" av tí fulla Skarv-manninum fyri síðan at taka hann heim og stillisliga broyta han... |
So it happened — God help me again. This time on February 8, 2000. I came home happy and tired from the day’s struggle. I sat down at the computer to check the mail. Yes, there were some letters. Especially that one letter looked exciting. I hurried to read this curious letter. A while passed before I came to myself. I... | BLARK_translated | So hendi tað Guð hjálpi mær aftur. Hesaferð hin 8. februar ár 2000. Eg kom glaður og troyttur heim frá dagsins stríði. Setti meg við telduna, at kanna post. Jú, har vóru nøkur brøv. Serliga tað eina brævið sá spennandi út. Eg skundaði mær at lesa hetta forvitnisliga brævið. Tað gekk ein løta áðrenn eg kom fyri meg. Eg ... |
Slightly hungry and now fairly pensive, I told myself that I should go and get a bite to eat. While I was placing a slice of cured sausage on the bread, I asked myself why and what for? The silent slice of bread and the drink cheerfully shook the questioning meaninglessness off themselves and sent me even farther into ... | BLARK_translated | Smásvangur og nú rættiliga hugtungur avtalaði eg við meg sjálvan, at eg skuldi fara at fáa mær ein bita. Alt meðan eg legði eina spegupylsuflís oman á breyðið, spurdi eg meg sjálvan um hví og hvat? Tigandi breyðflísin og drekkamuðurin ristu bara spyrjandi meiningsloysið burtur av sær, og sendi meg enn longur inn í tað ... |
Euroman, M! and Men’s Health, what is that supposed to be? Tie-wearers and document-folder mentality and nothing else. Whale hunts and mountain hiking will be in trouble if this becomes the future. Little will flourish in Faroese society if everyone is to become paper-pushers and office-chair knights. | BLARK_translated | Euroman, M! og Mens Health, hvat er tað fyri nakað? Slipsamenn og dokumentmappumentalitetur og einki annað. Tað verður illa statt við grindadrápi og fjallgongu, um hetta verður framtíðin. Lítil stirðil verður, tá í tí føroyska samfelagnum, um allir skulla verða pappírsfingrar og kontórstólariddarar. |
What good does it do us to be gallant and accommodating when every time we are rebuked by your sharp and white-sock-hating eyes? | BLARK_translated | Hvat nýttar tað hjá okkum at verða galantir og fyrikomandi, tá vit hvørja ferð verða reimbukaðir av hvøssu og hvítasokkahatandi eygum tykkara. |
Hip hip hooray for the blue Adidas with white stripes and the faded sweatshirts. | BLARK_translated | Hip hip hurra fyri teir bláu Adidas við hvítum strikum og teimum morreyðu troyggjunum. |
Hip hip hooray for that impeccably styled hairstyle that weather and wind and not least the pillow have arranged. | BLARK_translated | Hip hip hurra fyri ta frísutti frisýruna, sum veður og vindur og ikki minst koddin hava reitt. |
What is a tie when you are in distress at sea? I'm just asking. | BLARK_translated | Hvat er eitt slips, tá ið man er í havsneyð? Eg spyrji bara. |
What is a document folder worth in a storm out in the field? | BLARK_translated | Hvat er ein dokumentmappa verd í ódnarveðri burturi í haga? |
And will not the Euro-man and M! and all those who will soon grow cold at the nipples when it is written on them? | BLARK_translated | Og munnu ikki Euromaðurin og M! og allir teir, skjótt blíva kaldir um bibburnar, tá ið á stendur? |
No, it may well be possible that the only temple columns in the Faroe Islands are rubber boots, but document folders and fish detectors tailor-made sheep-patterned stereotypes don't raise any alarms, that I can tell you. | BLARK_translated | Nei, væl er tað møguligt at einastu tempulsúlurnar í Føroyum eru gummistyvlar, men dokumentmappur og fisufornemmar skraddaraseyðmaðar stereotypur laða ongar varðar, tað kann eg siga tykkum. |
No, women, be lovely to us now. Because we are who we are, and you are you, and together the future is the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | Nei, kvinnur verið nú hampiligar við okkum. Tí vit eru nú einaferð vit, og tit eru tit, og saman eru framtíðin Føroyar. |
After having observed a fairly typical discussion between these two sides one weekend, I found the article that Jørgen-Frantz wrote in Politiken in his time, about the same subject. The article describes many of the same thoughts that are present today, and although it is older than 60 years and in some cases outside a... | BLARK_translated | Eftir at hava eygleitt eina rættuliga typiska diskussión millum hesar báðar partarnar eitt vikuskifti fann eg mær greinina fram, sum Jørgen-Frantz í sínari tíð skrivaði í Politiken, um sama evni. Greinin lýsir nógvar av teimum somu tonkunum, sum eru frammi í dag, og tó at hon er eldri enn 60 ár og í summum førum uttanf... |
Now we speak about arguing. All these quarrels, blame, even perhaps shouting at each other about whether a solution should be found or not, are not to be discarded. Someone may perhaps learn something, even if many of us only learn to choose our words more carefully next time the solution comes up. Of course it is good... | BLARK_translated | Nú vit tosa um ræðandi. Allar hesar kjakstøður, klandur, ja kanska róp eftir hvør øðrum um loysast skal ella ei, eru ikki at kasta burt. Onkur lærir kanska okkurt, sjálvt um nógv av okkum einans læra at velja orðini betur næstur ferð loysingin kemur uppá tal. Sjálvandi er tað gott, at vit hava eina meining og ikki eru ... |
But the problem is that we can shout, blame and agitate all we want, but far, far too few of us dare to express our opinion publicly. We go to debate meetings in groups when Faroese politicians and other respectable people come to tell us how the country stands. Someone nervously raises their hand and asks about someth... | BLARK_translated | Men trupulleikin er, at vit kunnu rópa, klandrast og agitera alt tað vit vilja, men alt, alt ov fá av okkum tora at siga meining okkara alment. Vit fara á kjakfundir í hópatal, tá føroyskir politikkarar og aðrir góðir menn, koma at greiða okkum frá, hvussu landið liggur. Onkur hissini rættir hondina í loft og spyr um e... |
If we count the voices in the public sphere with some interesting things to say, where the owner is under 35 years old, the result is very sparse. One is called Jákup Sverri Kass, another Michael Jensen, a third Jóannes Dalsgaard — but then it thins out. | BLARK_translated | Fíntelja vit røddirnar í almenninginum við nøkrum áhugaverdum at siga, har eigarin er undir 35 ár, er úrslitið sera soltið. Jákup Sverri Kass eitur ein, Michael Jensen ein annar, Jóannes Dalsgaard ein triði, men so fer at tynnast. |
Everything good about them, but if they are the only representatives of what the younger generation believes should prevail; the only representatives of the generation that will inherit Faroese society in a few years, then the electoral options are so few. | BLARK_translated | Alt gott um teir, men um teir eru tey einastu umboðini fyri, hvat leið yngra ættarliðið heldur farast skal; tey einastu umboðini fyri ættarliðið, ið skal arva føroyska samfelagið um fá ár, so eru valmøguleikarnir í so fáir. |
On Thursday, April 13, the Speaker of the Parliament responded to the above-mentioned questions from Heðin Mortensen. | BLARK_translated | Hósdagin 13. apríl, boðaðiLøgtingsformaðurin frá omanfyri nevnda fyrispurningum frá Heðin Mortensen. |
1. What educational opportunities will Faroese people have in Denmark if the Faroe Islands are organized as an independent sovereign state, and one consequence of this is that Faroese people lose their citizenship in Denmark? | BLARK_translated | 1. Hvørjar útbúgvingarmøguleikar fáa føroyingar í Danmark, um so er, at Føroyar verða skipaðar sum fullveldisríki, og ein avleiðing av hesum er, at føroyingar missa sín ríkisborgararætt í Danmark? |
2. Would Faroese people who studied in Denmark have received Danish student support if the Faroe Islands had been organized as a sovereign state and Faroese people lost their citizenship rights in Denmark? | BLARK_translated | 2. Høvdu føroyingar, sum útbúgva seg í Danmark fingið danskan lestrarstuðul, um Føroyar blivu skipaðar sum fullveldisríki, og føroyingar mistu sín ríkisborgararætt í Danmark? |
In the constitution a Faroese citizenship will be established when the Faroe Islands become a fully sovereign state. | BLARK_translated | Í útgangsstøðinum verður ein føroyskur ríkisborgararættur skipaður, tá Føroyar gerast fullveldisríki. |
No established international procedure exists for how rights are arranged for citizens in two independent countries between themselves. Many examples exist, and in the Danish and Faroese context the precedent is the Icelandic system from 1918. | BLARK_translated | Ongin føst altjóða mannagongd finst fyri, hvussu rættindi verða avtalað fyri borgarar í tveimum sjálvstøðugum londum sínámillum. Nógv dømi finnast, og í donskum og føroyskum samanhangi er fordømið tann íslendska skipanin frá 1918. |
The government coalition’s and the cabinet’s plan is precisely this arrangement, where we do not have a common national citizenship, but where we agree among ourselves on equal rights in nationality in most areas, including this one. | BLARK_translated | Málið hjá samgonguni og landsstýrinum er júst henda skipanin, har vit ikki hava felags ríkisborgararætt, men at vit avtala sínámillum javnbjóðis rættindi í tjóðskapi á flestøllum økjum, eisini hesum. |
When the constitutional arrangements are changed, the government’s plan is to become an independent contracting party to all Nordic treaties, as well as to obtain independent representation in Nordic cooperation in other respects. | BLARK_translated | Tá ríkisrættarligu viðurskiftini verða broytt, er landsstýrisins ætlan, at gerast sjálvstøðugur sáttmálapartur í øllum norðurlendskum sáttmálum, eins og at fáa sjálvstøðuga umboðan í norðurlendskum samstarvi annars. |
According to the information the government has, there is no obstacle to this — on the other hand, it is precisely a prerequisite for becoming an equal partner in Nordic cooperation and treaties that the country has sovereignty. Compared with Iceland, the population of the Faroe Islands is even smaller, and therefore t... | BLARK_translated | Sambært teimum upplýsingum landsstýrið hevur, er ongin forðing fyri hesum - hinvegin er tað júst fortreytin fyri at gerast javnbjóðis partur í norðurlendskum samstarvi og sáttmálum, at landið hevur fullveldi. Samanborið við Ísland er fólkatalið í Føroyum uppaftur minni, og tí kunnu Føroyar fáa somu støðu sum Ísland. |
3. How far has the government progressed in making agreements with other countries about cooperation in the field of education? | BLARK_translated | 3. Hvussu langt er landsstýrið komið við at gera avtalur við onnur lond um samstarv á útbúgvingarøkinum? |
The Government cannot make direct education agreements for Faroese citizens until independence is established. | BLARK_translated | Landsstýrið kann ikki gera beinleiðis útbúgvingaravtalur fyri føroyskar ríkisborgarar fyrr enn fullveldi er staðfest. |
Nevertheless, of course there is a great deal of cooperation on education and research issues — especially with the other Nordic countries. In most cases these are concrete cooperation agreements between individual institutions, for example between the University of the Faroe Islands and various learned universities in... | BLARK_translated | Tó er sjálvsagt nógv samstarv um útbúgvingar- og granskingarspurningar - serstakliga við hini norðurlondini. Í flestum førum er talan um ítøkiligar samstarvsavtalur millum einstøku stovnarnar, eitt nú millum Fróðskaparsetur Føroya og ymsar lærdar háskúlar í Onglandi og hinum norðurlondunum. |
The Directorate of Education and Culture has otherwise made a cooperation declaration with the Icelandic Directorate of Education and Culture. This agreement covers, among other things, cooperation in the fields of education and research. There is already a certain cooperation with Iceland, but work is currently being ... | BLARK_translated | Undirvísingar- og Mentamálastýrið hevur annars gjørt eina samstarvsyvirlýsing við íslendska undirvísingar- og mentamálastýrið. Henda avtala fevnir m.a. um samstarv á útbúgvingar- og granskingarøkinum. Eitt ávíst samstarv er við Ísland frammanundan, men arbeitt verður í løtuni við at fylla út karmarnar fyri samstarvinum... |
To leave a country that has one of the highest welfare standards in the world? | BLARK_translated | At rýma úr einum landi ið hevur eitt tað hægsta vælferðarstigi í heiminum? |
In his Ólavsøka speech, Høgni Hoydal, among other things, touched on the fact that more albums are released in the Faroe Islands than in our neighboring countries, relative to the population. This is not the first time such comparisons have been made about Faroese people and the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | Í Ólavsøkurøðu síni kom Høgni Hoydal, millum annað inn á tað faktum at tað í Føroyum verða útgivnar fleiri fløgur enn í grannalondum okkara, tá hugsað verður um fólkatalið. Hetta er ikki fyrstu ferð, at slíkar samanberingar verða tiknar fram um føroyingar og Føroyar. |
A rich people — perhaps not in crowns and øre — but when it comes to literary, musical and artistic culture, the Faroese are millions. | BLARK_translated | Eitt ríkt fólkaslag - kanska ikki í krónum og oyrum - men tá talan er um bókliga, tónleikaliga og listaliga mentan eru føroyingar millióningar. |
New artists seem to be growing like weeds in the sea by their mother; Rannvá Kunoy, Hanni Bjartalíð, Janus Húsagarð, Hansina Olsen, Hedvig Høgnesen and Ova are just some of those who have pushed themselves forward in the visual arts in recent years. | BLARK_translated | Nýggj listafólk tykjast at veksa sum ókrút í havanum hjá mammuni; Rannvá Kunoy, Hanni Bjartalíð, Janus Húsagarð, Hansina Olsen, Hedvig Høgnesen og Ova, eru bert nøkur av teimum, ið hava stungið seg fram innan myndalistina hesi seinastu árini. |
Within the music scene, albums are released at very short intervals. Kúlar Røtur 1, Kúlar Røtur 2, Do You Know Rasmus, Trølla Pætur, Malan Eyðunsdóttir, Tóshavn Men’s Choir and many others. | BLARK_translated | Innan tónleikin vera fløgur útgivnar við sera stuttum millumbili. Kúlar Røtur 1, Kúlar Røtur 2, Kenna tit Rasmus, Trølla Pætur, Malan Eyðunsdóttir, Tóshavnar Mannskór og nógvar aðrar. |
So it doesn't seem to be any problem to find Faroese musicians either in the Faroe Islands or, in this case, Copenhagen. In any case, there are probably many events elsewhere where Faroese people study. | BLARK_translated | Tað tykist altso ikki at vera nakar trupulleiki at finna føroyskar tónleikarar hvørki í Føroyum ella í hesum førinum Keypmannahavn. Ivaleyst eru tað eisini nógv tiltøk aðrastaðni, har føroyingar lesa. |
Torbjørn Jacobsen was appointed Minister of Education and Culture on July 20 this year. | BLARK_translated | Torbjørn Jacobsen bleiv 20. juli í ár, settur sum landsstýrismaður í Undirvísingar- & Mentamálum. |
According to an article in Dimmalætting on August 7, this is a seat that rarely gets hot and comfortable to sit in. Since April 1988, as many as 13 ministers have had the pleasure of calling themselves Minister of Education and Culture. | BLARK_translated | Fylgi grein í Dimmalatting 7. august er hetta ein sessur, ið sjáldan gerst heitur og magiligur at sita í. Síðan apríl 1988 hava heili 13 landsstýrismenn havt tað gleði at kunna kalla seg undirvísingar og mentamálaráðharra: |

The fate of Faroese culture and education matters seems to be low-priority for the Faroese authorities. But what, Faroese culture is rich, we have nothing to fear there and the education system is likewise doing well, or Not to mention that both were made fun of at the Ólavsøkukabaret 2000. Why should Faroese actors ta... | BLARK_translated | Lagnan hjá føroysku mentanini og útbúgvingarmálunum tykist at vera lágprioriterað av føroyskum mynduleikum. Men hvat, føroyska mentanin er rík, vit hava einki at óttast har og útbúgvingarverkið hevur tað somuleiðis gott, ella Ikki sørt at bæði blivu tillátursgjørd á Ólavsøkukabarettini 2000. Hví skulu føroyskir sjónlei... |
Be that as it may, Torbjørn is placed in this precarious position and one can only hope that he will remain there for a while longer and will not feel obliged to follow in the footsteps of his predecessors. | BLARK_translated | Hvussu er og ikki, so er Torbjørn settur í henda flyktiga sess og er bert at vóna, at hann verður sitandi í eina tíð afturat og ikki følir seg pligtaðan at fylgja undangongumonnum sínum. |
About Torbjørn it should be said that he represents the Republican Party, the Eysturoy constituency, he has sat on the Judiciary Committee from May 1998 to March 2000 and on the Constitution Committee from 1999 to March 2000. | BLARK_translated | Um Torbjørn er at siga, at hann umboðar Tjóveldisflokkin, Eysturoyar vældømi, hann hevur sitið í Rættarnevndini frá mei 1998 - mars 2000 og í Grundlógarnevndini frá 1999 - mars 2000 |
We welcome Torbjørn to the session and hope that he stays for the whole meeting. | BLARK_translated | Vit ynskja Torbjørn vælkomnan í sessin og vóna, at hann heldur skeiðið út. |
International sport is in practice a kind of cultural war between countries. When the Dane, in an international competition, goes onto the field to kick the ball, it is not only for his own personal development but also for the Danish nation. The Olympics, World Cups and European Championships in football, handball, ic... | BLARK_translated | Altjóðaður ítrottur er í roynd og veru menta kríggj landa millum. Tá danin, í altjóðari kapping, fer á vøll at sparka bólt er tað ikki bara fyri egnari sjálvsmenning, men eisini fyri donsku tjóðina. OL, VM og EM í fótbólti, hondbólti, íshockey,. eru altjóða kappingar, ið virka sum kríggj landanna millum. Ikki kríggji í... |
So it's not a question of whether things are going well or badly for Danes in Sydney; rather it's a question of holding a referendum that is so infused with nationalist sentiment, at the same time as the people's national feelings are more conscious than ever. | BLARK_translated | Tað er altso ikki ein spurningur um tað gongur dønum gott ella illa í Sydney, heldur er tað ein spurningur um at leggja eina fólkaatkvøðu, sum er so tjóðskaparkensluborin, sama tíðarskeið sum at tjóðskaparkenslurnar hjá fólkinum eru meira tilvitaðar enn nakrantíð. |
Because — it is said — the small conditions in the Faroe Islands mean that criticism is very sensitive. Everyone knows everyone, and no one wants to disgrace their cousin in Trøllanes. It is much easier, less binding and more respectable to tend to one’s own small, petty-bourgeois existence behind the social curtains t... | BLARK_translated | Tí at - so verður sagt - tey smáu forholdini í Føroyum gera, at sovorðið sum at finnast at er sera viðkvæmt. Øll kenna øll, og eingin vil fornerma fermenningin hjá sær á Trøllanesi. Tað er jú nógv lættari og óforpliktandi og fittligari at røkja sína egnu, lítlu smáborgarligu tilveru aftanfyri samfelagsligu kulissurnar,... |
The purpose of debate and criticism is not — as many Faroese people think — something negative, like spoiling things and putting each other down, but constructively to guide one another with the aim of getting closer to the “truth”, for example a debate about which form of social system would be best for us Faroese. He... | BLARK_translated | Endamálið við kjaki og kritikki er ikki - sum nógvir føroyingar halda - nakað negativt, so sum at spilla og goysa hvønnannan út, men konstruktivt at rættleiða hvønnannan við tí endamáli at nærkast "sannleikanum", sum t.d. eitt kjak um, hvør samfelagsskipan hevði verið tann frægasta fyri okkum føroyingar. Her hava polit... |
But overall this is a question of mindset; both daring to give criticism, but also being able to accept it. Here the Faroese still have a long way to go - thinking that such things are from the devil. They are not. It is the silence and complacency that are the Devil in this context. | BLARK_translated | Men sum heild er hetta ein spurningur um hugsunarhátt; bæði at tora at geva kritikk, men eisini at duga at taka ímóti. Her hava føroyingar langt eftir á mál - halda at slíkt er av tí ónda. Tað er tað ikki. Tað er tøgnin og líkasælan, sum er Fanin í hesum sambandi. |
Critical communication is, namely, the vital immune defense in any living society; it is what makes society progressive and dynamic, in contrast to the stagnant, rigid, and ossified Faroese society of today. The enemy is the suffocating silence. And there is only one way to overcome it: public debate! Not just backyard... | BLARK_translated | Kritiskt samskifti er nevniliga lívsneyðuga immunverjan í einumhvørjum livandi samfelag, er tað, sum ger samfelagið progressivt og dynamiskt, mótvegis tí uppsteðgaða, fastlæsta og stirvnaða føroyska samfelagnum í dag. Fíggindin er køvandi tøgnin. Og tað er bert ein háttur at vinna á henni. Alment kjak! Ikki bara túnato... |
In recent years there has been a lot of debate regarding the role of the intellectual. On the one hand there are those who try to redefine the intellectual radically: Foucault, Lyotard, Fukuyama. On the other hand there are those who preserve the more romantic and traditional conception of the intellectual, such as Ant... | BLARK_translated | Síðstu árini hevur verið mikið kjak viðvíkjandi leiklutinum hjá tí intellektuella. Øðrumegin eru tey, ið royna at definera tann intellektuella radikalt av nýggjum: Foucault, Lyotard, Fukuyama. Hinumegin eru tey, sum varðveita ta meira romantisku og traditionellu uppfatanina av hinum intellektuella, sum t.d. Antonio Gra... |
Now I will say something about these subgroups of students, and afterwards follows a theoretical description of those students. | BLARK_translated | Nú fari eg at siga nakað um hesar undirbólkar av lesandi, og aftaná fylgir ein teoretisk lýsing av teimum lesandi. |
The stereotype for the student in this group lives at the Oyrasund dormitory, has many Faroese friends and acquaintances at the dorm, reads the Faroese newspapers, goes to Skarv and Laurits Betjent when he goes to town, and otherwise to Føroyahúsið when there is a party there. | BLARK_translated | Stereotypan fyri hin lesandi í hesum bólkinum býr á Oyrasundskollegiinum, hevur nógvar føroyskar vinir og kenningar á kollegiinum, lesur føroysku bløðini, fer á Skarv og Laurits Betjent, tá ið hann fer í býin, og annars í Føroyahúsið tá ið onkur veitsla er har. |
This says something about the importance of taking responsibility, being active and being in solidarity; and these are characteristics of this group. | BLARK_translated | Hetta sigur nakað um týdninginum av at taka ábyrgd, vera aktivur og at vera solidariskur; og hesi eru eyðkenni fyri hendan bólkin. |
Those who live here and spend their free time together with others from the dormitory are relatively young and often single. Many Faroese live in dormitories and often they stick together, without thereby isolating themselves from other students. On the contrary, a dormitory is a place where Faroese most easily come in... | BLARK_translated | Tey, sum búgva her og sum nýta sína frítíð saman við øðrum frá kollegiinum, eru lutfallsliga ung og ofta støk (single). Nógvir føroyingar búgva á kollegium og oftani halda teir saman, uttan at harvið isolera seg frá øðrum lesandi. Tvørturímóti so er eitt kollegium, staðið har ið føroyingar koma lættast í samband við et... |
Besides what goes on at the dormitory itself, Faroese dorm residents often have contacts with students from the school they attend. Dormitory lifestyle is exciting during the first period you’re down there, but gradually you expand your social network beyond the dorm as a place to live, because you may get tired of the... | BLARK_translated | Umframt tað sum fyrigongur á kollegiinum, so hava føroyskir kollegiubúgvar oftani samband við studentar frá læristovninum tey ganga á. Kollegiu-lívsstílurin er spennandi tað fyrsta tíðarskeiðið man er niðri, men eftirhondini víðkar man sítt sociala netverk so at tað fer útum kollegiið sum bústað, tí at man kanska troyt... |
The situation for Faroese people who have a family is of course somewhat different. Couples with children have a lot of other things to think about (at least those who establish themselves as a typical bourgeois nuclear family), and may perhaps not need or have time for many activities outside the family unit. | BLARK_translated | Støðan hjá føroyingum, ið hava familju er sjálvandi nakað øðrvísi. Pør við børnum hava nógv annað at hugsa um (ið hvussu er tey sum etablera seg sum ein vanlig borgarlig kjarnufamilja), og hava kanska ikki tørv og tíð fyri nógvum aktivitetum uttanum familju-eindina. |
As I have already mentioned, there are also differences between those who have embarked on classical university educations and those who have technical/apprenticeship educations. | BLARK_translated | Sum eg longu havi nevnt, so eru eisini munir á teimum, ið eru farin undir klassiskar universitetsútbúgv-ingar og teimum ið hava tekniskar/lærlinga útbúgvingar. |
Students are in an intermediate state — a liminal phase — between two statuses. Students are neither ordinary workers nor school pupils, neither established adults nor children living at their parents' home; they are at a crossroads. Faroese people down there are neither at home nor out in the “foreign.” | BLARK_translated | Lesandi eru í einari millumstøðu - einari liminalfasu - millum tveir statusar. Lesandi er hvørki vanlig arbeiðsfólk ella skúlanæmingar, hvørki etableraði vaksin ella børn heima hjá foreldrunum, tey eru á einum krossvegi. Føroyingar niðri eru hvørki heima ella úti í tí "fremmanda". |
The liminal phase in rites of passage is “dangerous” because one stands on the boundary between two categories and therefore cannot be classified like everyone else in society. It is not until one has gone through (the symbolic) incorporation that one is back in the system. | BLARK_translated | Liminalfasan í rites de passage er "vandamikil" tí at man stendur á markinum millum tvær kategoriir og harvið ikki kann klassifiserast sum øll onnur í samfelagnum. Tað er ikki fyrr enn man er komin ígjøgnum (symbolsku) inkorporatiónina, at man aftur er í systeminum. |
When you are with people who have completely different jobs and economic resources than yourself, you may bring out your identity as a “student”; when you are traveling abroad and talk to someone you meet by chance, you bring out your identity as a “Faroese”. | BLARK_translated | Tá ið tú er saman við fólki, ið hava heilt onnur størv og búskaparligar ressurcir enn tú sjálvur, tá kann tað vera, at tú tekur fram tín samleika sum "lesandi"; tá ið tú er á ferð í útlondum og tosar við onkran tú av tilvild hittir, tá tekur tú fram tín samleika sum "føroying". |
With this I am trying to say that composure is not something innate that is always decisive for your status and that never changes. Composure is composite, and you can "activate" the part of it that you (strategically) want to display in the conversation. | BLARK_translated | Við hesum royni eg at siga at samleikin ikki er nakað viðføri, ið altíð er avgerandi fyri tín status og sum ongantíð broytist. Samleikin er samansettur og tú kanst "aktivera" tann partin av honum, ið tú (strategisk) ynskir at sína fram í samrøðuni. |
About half a year ago the Oyggjaskeggi newspaper — the expatriates’ paper — got a new editor. He was simultaneously editor of another paper, a Danish college paper, and he has also been one of the editors of Pisan at MFS this year. His name is Kim Simonsen. | BLARK_translated | Fyri einum hálvum ári síðani fekk Oyggjaskeggi- blaðið hjá útisetunum- nýggjan blaðstjóra. Hesin var samtíðis blaðstjóri á einum øðrum blað, eitt danskt kollegiiblað og hann hevur eisini verið ein av blaðstjórunum á Pisuni hjá MFS í ár. Hann eitur Kim Simonsen. |
We sat and produced Fjølnir at the same time as Oyggjaskeggi made their paper on the first floor of Føroyahúsið in Copenhagen; these papers are made in the same place, but not with the same equipment. We therefore took Kim from his job as editor to do an interview with him. Kim explains that he is 26 years old and from... | BLARK_translated | Vit sótu og gjørdu Fjølnir samtíðis sum Oyggjaskeggi gjørdi teirra blað á fyrstu hædd í Føroyahúsinum í Keypmannahavn, hesi bløð verða gjørd á sama staði, men ikki við somu útgerð. Vit tóku sostatt Kim frá hansara starvi sum blaðstjóri fyri at gera eina samrøðu við hann. Kim greiður frá, at hann er 26 ára gamal og av S... |
He doesn't think it's good to work too much alongside studying, because research shows that those who work more than 15 hours a week do much worse at school than those who don't work. However, he believes that jobs that are relevant can be good to have, such as being an editor or, for someone studying law, working in a... | BLARK_translated | Hann heldur annars ikki, at tað er gott at arbeiða ov nógv við síðuna av lesnaðinum, tí kanningar vísa at tey, sum arbeiða meira enn 15 tímar um vikuna klára seg nógv verri í skúlanum enn tey, sum ikki arbeiða. Hann heldur tó at arbeiði, sum eru relevant kunnu vera góð at hava, so sum at vera blaðstjóri ella hjá jurale... |
We are amazed by this great interest he has in working at MFS. | BLARK_translated | Vit undrast á hendan stóra áhugan Hans hevur at arbeiða í MFS. |
