MFS sent mid-January — now we are in 1997 — a letter to the minister, in which they asked about the provisional appointment of a committee, because a long time had passed again, and people in MFS had therefore begun to doubt whether some misunderstanding had occurred. | BLARK_translated | MFS sendi miðskeiðis í januar - nú eru vit í 1997 - landsstýrismanninum bræv, har spurt varð eftir fyribils nevndarsetninginum, tí nú var aftur drúgv tíð farin, og fólk í MFS vóru tí farin at ivast um onkur misskiljing var íkomin. |
In an organization like MFS, which is based on unpaid work, there is a high turnover of people. Therefore it can be difficult to maintain work on issues that drag out. If MFS had not prioritized this matter as highly as it has, almost nothing would likely have been done about it today. But the issue is still a priority... | BLARK_translated | Í einum felag sum MFS, sum er grundað á ólønt arbeiði, er stór útskifting við fólki. Tí kann vera trupult at halda uppi arbeiðið við málum, sum draga út. Um ikki MFS hevði prioriterað hetta mál so høgt, sum gjørt hevur verið, hevði neyvan verið gjørt nakað við tað í dag. Men málið stendur enn frammaliga hjá ráðnum. Í T... |
Three days before Fjølnir had its deadline — and by then almost two months had passed since Eilif Samuelsen had publicly promised that something would happen within a month — this article was finished. But then it had to be changed, and an “no” was put into the headline, because then MFS received a letter! | BLARK_translated | Tríggjar dagar áðrenn Fjølnir hevði evstamark - og tá vóru næstan tveir mánaðir farnir síðani Eilif Samuelsen alment hevði lovað at innan ein mánað skuldi nakað henda - var henda grein liðug. Men so mátti hon broytast, og eitt "ikki" varð sett í yvirskriftina, tí tá fekk MFS bræv! |
Brian S. Joensen is 24 years old and is from Tórshavn. He studies natural sciences at Roskilde University Center, and this is his first year studying at RUC. | BLARK_translated | Brian S. Joensen er 24 ára gamal og er úr Havn. Hann lesur náttúruvísund á Roskilde Universitetscenter, og er hetta fyrsta árið hann lesur á RUC. |
Many students in Copenhagen and elsewhere are marked by fierce prejudices against RUC, and even though the stories are numerous and very old, these prejudices still cling to many rather ignorant Copenhageners. | BLARK_translated | Nógv lesandi í Keypmannahavn og aðrastaðni eru merkt av ógvisligum fordómun um RUC og sjálvt um søgurnar eru nógvar og sera gamlar so hanga hesir fordómar enn við hjá nógvum heldur óvitandi keypmannahavnarum. |
RUC is today a higher education institution on an equal footing with all the others in Denmark and perhaps even better. | BLARK_translated | RUC er í dag ein hægri læristovnur á jøvnum føti við allar aðrar í Danmark og kanska betur eisini. |
Brian studies at RUC. "Nat. bas" is an abbreviation for "Naturvidenskabelig basisuddannelse" (Natural Science basic education). | BLARK_translated | Brian lesur á RUC. Nat. bas er stytting fyri Naturvidenskabelig basisuddannelse. |
The abbreviations for the basic programmes in humanities and social sciences are respectively Hum. bas and Sam. bas. | BLARK_translated | Styttingarnar fyri basis útbúgvingarnar á humanoria og samfelagsvísund eru ávíkavist Hum. bas og Sam. bas. |
The basic education in natural sciences takes two years, and interdisciplinary work is carried out here between the various natural science subjects. | BLARK_translated | Basis útbúgvingin í náttúruvísund tekur tvey ár og her verður arbeitt tvørfakligt millum tey ymisku náttúruvísindaligu lærugreinanar. |
To complete the basic education one must have attended 8 courses which are a combination of compulsory and elective subjects. | BLARK_translated | Fyri at kunna enda basis úbúgvingina skal ein hava fylgt 8 skeiðum sum eru ein samanseting av obligatoriskum og valfríðum lærugreinum. |
For each semester of the basic education program a project assignment must be done. These assignments are carried out as group work, and at the moment Brian is in the process of writing a project in the subject of geography. | BLARK_translated | Fyri hvørt hálvár á basis útbúgvingini skal ein projekt uppgáva gerast. Hesar uppgávur vera gjørdar sum bólkaarbeiði, og í løtuni er Brian í gongd við at skriva eitt projekt innan lærugreininna geografi. |
Brian is very closely involved with this work both because, as a Faroese person, he has an interest in investigating these matters, and also because the assignment is part of the much-talked-about “stop test” that will take place in the summer. | BLARK_translated | Brian er sera nærlagdur við hesum arbeiðinum bæði tí tað hevur hansara áhuga sum føroyingur at kanna hesi viðurskiftini, men eisini tí at uppgávan er ein partur av tí illa umtøktu "stopproyndini" sum verður í summar. |
When the majority of the teaching is organized as project work carried out in groups, this is something one has to get used to. | BLARK_translated | Tá meginparturin av undirvísingini er lagdur í projektarbeiði sum verða gjørd í bólkum, tá er hetta nakað ein má venja seg við. |
As it is now there are a total of 7 people who make up Brian's group, six Danes and Brian as the only Faroese. | BLARK_translated | Sum nú er eru heili 7 fólk sum mynda bólkin hjá Brian, seks danir og so Brian sum einasti føroyingur. |
Brian considers the conditions for the students at RUC to be good. | BLARK_translated | Umstøðurnar hjá teimun lesandi á RUC heldur Brian vera góðar. |
For example, he mentions that they have a good library which, in addition to having many books, also keeps/maintains the Faroese newspapers. | BLARK_translated | Hann nevnir t.d at tey hava eitt gott bókasavn sum umframt at hava nógvar bókur eisini heldur tey føroysku bløðini. |
Here one can find Faroese people just by looking around and seeing who is on social media or in the dark. | BLARK_translated | Her kann ein hitta føroyingar bert við at hyggja seg um og síggja hvør situr við sosialinum ellla dimmuni. |
Besides the more material conditions being in order, the spiritual/mental conditions are also of importance. | BLARK_translated | Umframt at tær meiri materiellu umstøðurnar eru eru í lagi so eru eisini tær andaligu umstøðurnar eisini av týdningi. |
The interaction between teachers and the students is not so much marked by teacher authority. | BLARK_translated | Samanspælið millum undirvísarar og tey lesandi er ikki so nógv merkt av lærara autoriteti. |
The role of a teacher at RUC is therefore not one of saying: I am the teacher, and I know everything! You are students and know little or nothing! | BLARK_translated | Leikluturin hjá einum undirvísara á RUC er sostatt ikki ein sum sigur: Eg eri lærari, og eg veit alt! Tit eru lesandi og vita lítið og einki! |
Brian is now almost finished with the first year of his education, so there's still a long way to go. | BLARK_translated | Brian er nú næstan liðugur við fyrsta árið av sínari útbúgving, so enn er langt á mál. |
He is not sure what his final education will look like. | BLARK_translated | Hann er ikki vísur í hvussu endaliga útbúgving hansara kemur at síggja út. |
But with the many options available at RUC, it is not inconceivable that Brian will combine his further studies of both humanities subjects and natural science subjects. | BLARK_translated | Men við teim mongu valmøguleikunum ein kann nýta á RUC, so er ikki óhugsandi, at Brian fer at samanseta sín víðari lestur av bæði humanistiskum lærigreinum og náttúruvísindaligum lærugreinum. |
“Phew, the fall is far too great,” replied the well-known Norwegian author Jan Erik Vold when he was once asked why, in his books, he goes beyond the great classical themes like life and death, love, art, goodness, evil, and madness and instead wrote poems about French bread, verses about the tram and everyday city lif... | BLARK_translated | Puha, fallhøyden er alt for stor" ljóðaði svarið frá tí kenda norska høvundinum Jan Erik Vold, tá ið hann einaferð varð spurdur, hví hann í bókum sínum fer uttan um stór klassisk temu sum lív og deyða, kærleika, list, góðsku, óndskap og ørskap og ístaðin skrivaði yrkingar um fransktbreyðið, kvæði um sporvognin og dagli... |
Rakel Helmsdal is, in a sense, a bolder author when she invites the reader into her stories from nearer and more distant pasts in and around her fictional universe — the town of Port Janua. Many of the stories in her latest book "Stories from Port Janua" engage more than playfully with those big classical themes. Somet... | BLARK_translated | Rakel Helmsdal er í so máta ein djarvari høvundur, tá ið hon bjóðar lesaranum við inn í sínar frásagnir úr nærari og fjarari fortíð í og runt um í sínum fiktiva universi - býnum Port Janua. Tí fleiri av frásagnunum í hennara seinastu bók "Søgur úr Port Janua" meira enn fjeppast uppi í júst teimum stóru klassisku temunu... |
The accounts described below illustrate how wide-ranging the collection is, both in form, content and in its appeal to the reader. | BLARK_translated | Frásagnirnar, sum verða umtalaðar niðanfyri, lýsa hvussu vítt samlingin fevnir, bæði í formi, innihaldi og árini á lesaran. |
In short, "Violet Afternoon" is a story about the deceitful Fióla, who for mysterious reasons insists on living her sheltered life in holes under her parents' house, where she spends her time reading and digging! In itself a striking fate, an interesting subject for an author who particularly likes that — one might bel... | BLARK_translated | Stutt sagt er "Violettur seinnapartur" ein frásøgn um ta løgnu Fiólu, sum av gátuførum orsøkum tvíheldur um at liva lív sítt avbyrgd í holum undir húsinum hjá foreldrunum, har hon tekst við at lesa og grava! Í sjálvum sær ein hugtakandi lagna, eitt áhugavert evnið fyri ein høvund sum dámar tað serliga - skuldi ein trúð... |
The problem is simply that the author forgets Fíola, gets lost in a fondness for storytelling and loses control so the reader is left with a narrative that in form and content feels confusing. In any case I myself am drowned in my attempts to find a deeper purpose in the many (in my eyes) irrelevant digressions, narrat... | BLARK_translated | Trupulleikin er bara, at høvundurin gloymir Fiólu, missir seg burtur í frásøguhugi og missir tamarhaldið so lesarin situr eftir við eini frásøgn, sum í bygnaði og innihaldi virkar fløkjut. Í øllum førum er undirritaði druknaður í sínum royndum at finna eina djypri ætlan við teimum mongu (í mínum eygum) óviðkomandi hjáf... |
The council has once again acknowledged that with Fjølnir, which is the face of the association, our members in the student dormitory have a good means to address Faroese affairs. The council has therefore set as a goal that Fjølnir should become better known in the Faroe Islands, in order to draw attention to the many... | BLARK_translated | Ráðið hevur enn einaferð ásannað, at við Fjølnir, sum er andlit felagsins, hava okkara limir í útisetu ein góðan miðil at viðgera føroysk viðurskifti. Ráðið hevur tí sett sum mál, at Fjølnir skal gerast meira kendur í Føroyum, fyri at gera vart við fjøldina av fólki undir útbúgving. Fólk er sett, sum burturav skal taka... |
When MFS had people in the Faroe Islands, a meeting was arranged with the Support Fund. Since the academic year 1992–1993 no survey has been made of how the distribution is between fields of study and places of study for students abroad, and this situation was presented to the Support Fund. For good reasons not all stu... | BLARK_translated | Nú MFS hevði fólk í Føroyum varð fundur fingin í lag við Stuðulsstovninum. Síðani lestrarárið '92-'93 er eingin kanning gjørd av, hvussu býti er millum lestrargreinir og -støð fyri lesandi uttanlands, og henda støða varð løgd fyri Stuðulsstovnin. Í limaskránni hjá MFS eru av góðum grundum ikki øll lesandi við, og hóast... |
When the statistics were last compiled, the procedure was that the Support Fund provided information and MFS people did the statistics. That will be the case again now! The Support Fund was in fact pleased about the reminder, because they too need such figures. | BLARK_translated | Tá hagtøl vórðu gjørd seinast var framferðin, at Stuðulsstovnurin lat upplýsingar og MFS fólk at gera hagtølini. Soleiðis verður aftur nú! Stuðulsstovnurin var nevniliga fegin um áminningina, tí eisini teir hava brúk fyri slíkum tølum. |
Several attempts by MFS have yielded no results, and therefore the council acknowledges that it is difficult to get action — only plans or concrete legislative proposals — from the political side regarding Faroese education policy. And this is particularly disappointing for us, now that Faroese education policy has bee... | BLARK_translated | Fleiri royndir frá MFS hava einki úrslit givið, og tí ásannar ráðið, at tungt er at fáa útspæl - bara ætlanir ella konkret lógaruppskot - frá politiskari síðu um føroyskan útbúgvingarpolitikk. Og tað kemur serliga dátt við hjá okkum, nú júst føroyskur útbúgvingarpolitikkur hevur verið prioriterað uppgáva hjá MFS í meir... |
There has been a lot of debate about the issue in MFS, both in the council and at members’ meetings. But because the matter has not progressed at all with the authorities in the Faroe Islands, the council now intends to deliberately work to get the debate going in the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | Nógv kjak hevur verið um evnið í MFS, bæði í ráðnum og á limafundum. Men av tí at málið ongan veg er komið hjá myndugleikunum í Føroyum, ætlar ráðið nú miðvíst at arbeiða fyri at fáa kjak í gongd í Føroyum. |
As part of the preparations, two groups have been formed, each given its own task. One is to, among other things, act as a support group for the MFS representative on the education committee, when it is appointed, and the other is to work with the University as an MFS matter. | BLARK_translated | Sum lið í fyrireikingunum eru tveir bólkar settir, sum hava fingið hvør sína uppgávu. Annar skal m.a. virka sum stuðulsbólkur hjá umboð MFS í útbúgvingarnevndini, tá hon verður sett, og hin skal arbeiða við Fróðskaparsetrinum sum MFS-mál. |
Yes, there will be a party. MFS has a birthday this year, and a decision has been made to hold a celebration for the members in connection with the study conference this summer. Therefore it is important that friends and acquaintances who plan to attend this MFS celebration become members of MFS as soon as possible. | BLARK_translated | Jú, ball verður. MFS hevur føðingardag í ár, og nú er avgerð tikin um at halda veitslu fyri limunum í sambandi við lestrarstevnuna í summar. Tí ræður um at fáa vinir og kenningar, sum ætla sær í hesa MFS-veitslu, at gerast limir í MFS sum skjótast. |
The main lines for the reading festival have been set. Topics in natural sciences, technology and medical sciences will be addressed. This will help achieve balance, after social sciences, art and culture were covered in previous years. | BLARK_translated | Stóru linjurnar fyri lestrarstevnuna eru lagdar. Evni innan náttúruvísindi, tøkni og læknavísindi verða viðgjørd. Hetta kemur at fáa javnvág í, eftir at samfelagsvísindi, list og mentan hava verið viðgjørd hini árini. |
The intention is that the reading conference should be used as part of MFS’s effort to stimulate debate in the Faroe Islands about language issues where there is a need for discussion. For that reason, educational policy will probably also be addressed at the reading conference. | BLARK_translated | Ætlandi skal lestrarstevnan brúkast sum liður í stremban MFS eftir at fáa kjak í Føroyum um mál, har tørvur er á kjaki. Tí verður útbúgvingarpolitikkur helst eisini viðgjørdur á lestrarstevnuni. |
Group work is by no means new, neither in the councils nor in the MFS context otherwise, but it is now being promoted more than before. | BLARK_translated | Bólkaarbeiðið er als ikki nýtt, hvørki í ráðnum ella í MFS-høpi annars, men tað verður nú sett fremri enn fyrr. |
The Nordic countries are very similar, and our student associations are similar as well. That means we can gain a lot from cooperating, because our problems are very similar. The Faroe Islands are independently represented in the NOM cooperation. | BLARK_translated | Norðurlond líkjast sera nógv, og okkara studentafelagskapir líkjast eisini. Tað merkir, at vit kunnu fáa nógv burturúr av at samarbeiða, tí okkara trupulleikar líkjast nógv. Føroyar eru sjálvstøðugt umboðaðar í NOM-samarbeiðinum. |
NOM stands for Nordisk Ordførende Møte. It is organized so that twice a year the Nordic student associations meet to talk about common problems and to learn from each other. Every other meeting is organized as a seminar. This time the meeting was in Helsinki and was organized as a seminar. | BLARK_translated | NOM stendur fyri Nordisk Ordførende Møte. Skipað verður soleiðis fyri, at tvær ferðir um árið møtast norðurlendsku studentafelagsskapirnir, fyri at tosa um felags trupulleikar og at læra av hvørjum øðrum. Annarhvør fundur er skipaður sum seminar. Hesuferð var fundurin í Helsinki og varð skipaður sum seminar. |
When we met the first day, the various participants were to tell what their organization had done over the past six months. | BLARK_translated | Tá vit møttust fyrsta dagin skuldu teir ymisku luttakarnar fortelja, hvat teirra felagsskapur hevur gjørt seinasta hálva árið: |
Finland) We learned that Finland is trying to introduce a support system similar to the Danish SU, because they consider that to be the best system. They also said that they had introduced a system with degrees like the rest of the world, namely bachelor (3 years) and master (2 years). | BLARK_translated | Finland) Vit fingu at vita, at Finland roynir at innføra eina skipan fyri stuðul, sum líknar tí danska SU, tí at teir halda hetta vera tann besta skipanin. Tey fortaldu eisini, at tey høvdu innført eina skipan við útbúgvingum sum restin av heiminum, altso bachelor (3 ár) og master (2 ár). |
Greenland) reported that they had influence on education policy, so that they were included in committees for education policy in Greenland and would soon organize a seminar on education policy. Greenlanders as students in Denmark receive more in support than Faroese do, and receive the support directly from the Home R... | BLARK_translated | Grønland) fortaldi frá, at tey høvdu ávirkan á útbúgvingarpolitikkin, soleiðis at tey vóru við í nevndum fyri útbúgvingarpolitikk í Grønlandi og skipa tey skjótt fyri einum seminari um útbúgvingarpolitikk. Grønlendingar fáa sum lesandi í Danmark meira enn føroyingar fáa í stuðuli, og fáa stuðulin beinleiðis frá heimast... |
Norway) said that one problem with their students studying abroad was that the Erasmus system gives those students less money than if you have a government loan. It was also mentioned that most of the study support was loans and the interest rate for the loans was 7%, and they are working on lowering it. | BLARK_translated | Noreg) fortaldi, at ein trupulleiki við teirra uttanlandalesnaði var, at Erasmus skipanin gevur tí lesandi minni pening enn um tú hevur statslán. Tað varð eisini nevnt, at lestrarstuðulin mest var lán og rentan fyri lánini var 7%, og tey arbeiða við at lækka hana. |
Iceland) reported that they had established a fund financed by the state where students could receive money. This means that they could get a study‑relevant job during the summer vacation and receive pay for it. | BLARK_translated | Ísland) greiddi frá, at tey høvdu stovnað ein grunn fíggjaðan av statinum, har lesandi kundu fáa pengar. Hetta merkir, at tey kundu fáa eitt lestrarrelevant arbeiði í summarferiuni og fáa løn herfrá. |
explained that we intended to establish an education committee to operate, as most of the others already have. We also reported about the Reading Festival, which we intended to hold again this summer, and that we are trying to get Fjølnir sold in the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | greiddi frá, at vit ætlaðu at fáa eina útbúgvingarnevnd at virka, sum flestu av hinum longu hava. Vit greiddu eisini frá um Lestrarstevnuni, sum vit ætlað at halda aftur í summar, og at vit royna at fáa selt Fjølnir í Føroyum. |
In addition to these associations, LMS (Denmark) and Lietuvos Studentų Sąjunga, VUSA (Lithuania) participated in the seminar. | BLARK_translated | Umframt hesar felagskapir vóru LMS (Danmark) og Lietuvos Studentu Sajunga, VUSA (Litauen) við á seminarinum. |
too little information about CEM, from the Nordic Council, nobody knows about this system. | BLARK_translated | ov lítið av informatión um CEM, av norðurlanda ráðnum, eingin veit um hesa skipanina. |
The negative consequences of the increased competition are also a problem, because the universities will compete to attract as many students as possible, thereby lowering the quality. | BLARK_translated | negativu avleiðingarnar av tí øktu kappingini eru eisini ein trupulleiki, tí, at universitetini fara at kappast um at fáa so nógv lesandi sum gjørligt, og harvið lækka kvalitetin. |
Have a qualification obtained after studies in one Nordic country recognized as common, so that it has value for employers in the other countries. | BLARK_translated | Fáa gjørt eitt prógv eftir lesnað í einum Norðurlandi, sum er felags, soleiðis at tað hevur virði fyri arbeiðsgevarar í hinum londunum. |
A good meeting where we got a lot out of it; the cooperation is good! | BLARK_translated | Ein góður fundur, har vit fingu nógv burturúr; samarbeiði er gott! |
Versatile music, crafted and played by seasoned musicians. The 70s and 80s are present, but the 90s and innovation are not so easy to detect. | BLARK_translated | Fjølbroyttur tónleikur, smíðaður og spældur av garvaðum tónleikarum. 70ini og 80ini eru har, men 90ini og nýskapanin eru ikki so løtt at fáa oyra á. |
The music on this album can be classified under the general heading rock and pop music. But because the musicians, as far as the undersigned knows, each have quite different musical backgrounds and interests, the album as a whole is marked by genres that lie quite far apart from each other. | BLARK_translated | Tónleikurin á hesi fløgi kann koyrast undir felagsheitið, rock- og poptónleikur. Men av tí, at tónleikarnir, so vítt undirritaði veit, hvør sær hava rættiliga ymiska tónlistarliga bakgrund og áhuga, er fløgan sum heild merkt av sjangrum, ið liggja nokkso langt frá hvørjum øðrum. |
The material on the album is arranged so that the softer and more catchy songs can be found in the first half, while the heavy, hard and more aggressive music comes afterwards. This arrangement may come as something of a surprise to those who have heard Moirae play live and thought that Moirae was primarily a rock band... | BLARK_translated | Tilfarið á fløguni er skipað soleiðis, at tey bleytu og meira íoyrafallandi løgini eru at finna á tí fyrru helvtini, meðan tann tungi, harði og meira ágangandi tónleikurin kemur aftaná. Hendan skipanin kemur kanska eitt sindur óvart á tey, ið hava hoyrt Moirae spæla live og hildu, at Moirae fyrst og fremst var ein rock... |
It opens with the song “Lognbrá,” which is a quiet, jazzified tune with piano accompaniment in the style of Elton John, written and sung by Elton John expert Kim Hansen from Nólsoy. This is a sorrowful and sensitive song with lyrics about longing for a lost love and the memories of it. The song creates a certain mood a... | BLARK_translated | Lagt verður fyri við lagnum "Lognbrá", ið er eitt stilt, jazzificerað lag við klaverundirspæli á la Elton John, skrivað og sungið av Elton John-serfrøðinginum, Kim Hansen úr Nólsoy. Hetta er eitt sorgblítt og viðkvæmt lag við einum teksti, ið snýr seg um longsul eftir tí mista kærleikanum og minnini um hann. Hetta lagi... |
From these three tracks, which are close to that particularly Faroese folk/rock music that made Frændur household names in the Faroe Islands in the 1980s and still has a firm hold on Faroese people, the album moves into a more harmonically advanced rock-fusion style with the songs "Flúgv Við Mær" and "Andvekur", which ... | BLARK_translated | Frá hesum trimum løgunum, ið eru nær í ætt við tann serliga føroyska folk/rocktónleikin, ið gjørdi Frændur heimsgitnar í Føroyum í 80'unum, og sum enn hevur eitt fast tak í føroyingum, fer fløgan yvir í ein meira harmoniskt avanseraðan rockfusión-stíl við løgunum, "Flúgv Við Mær" og "Andvekur", ið Kaj hevur skrivað. Ta... |
The heavier and more hard-hitting rock music is represented, among other things, by the songs "Rúsevnistoka" and "Myndugleikin", and here the guitarist, Hjalti, gets to come a bit more forward to show his electric guitar skills. "Rúsevnistoka" is nothing less than unsentimental Faroese social realism, and "Myndugleikin... | BLARK_translated | Tann tungi og meira hartsláandi rocktónleikurin er millum annað umboðaður av løgunum, "Rúsevnistoka" og "Myndugleikin", og her sleppur guitarleikarin, Hjalti, eitt sindur meira framat at sýna síni elguitarkynstur. "Rúsevnistoka" er einki minni enn ósentimental føroysk social realisma, og "Myndugleikin" er ein smáparano... |
It cannot be denied that on Moirae’s debut album there are many good and well-played songs, but unfortunately the many different musical styles and the many different themes addressed in the lyrics make the album seem to spread itself in far too many directions. Overall, this is a project that, in my opinion, tries to ... | BLARK_translated | Tað skerst ikki burtur, at á hesi fyrstu fløguni hjá Moirae eru nógv góð og vælspæld løg, men tíverri gera teir nógvu ymisku tónlistarligu stílirnir og tey nógvu ymisku evnini, ið tekstirnir viðgera, at fløgan tykist at spjaða seg í alt ov nógvar ættir. Sum heild er hetta eitt projekt, ið eftir mínum tykki, fevir um al... |
The many different elements make it difficult to see the album "Moirae" as a cohesive work, where the individual songs together create a whole, and the question is also whether the individual styles don’t become unbelievable if there’s too much zapping between different styles. It’s conceivable that the musical quality... | BLARK_translated | Tey nógvu ymisku elementini gera tað ringt at síggja fløguna "Moirae" sum eitt samansjóðað verk, har tey einstøku løgini tilsamans skapa eina heild, og spurningurin er eisini um tann einstaki stílurin ikki gerst ótrúverdigur, um zappað verður ov nógv ímillum ymiskar stílir. Tað kann hugsast, at tónlistarliga dygdin hev... |
Because of all this, the Moirae project makes one think about what it is in general that causes those particular people and that particular music to come together and form a band — or in other words, how a stable group ensemble is created. There are probably many explanations for this, but in any case a very important ... | BLARK_translated | Orsakað av øllum hesum, fær hetta Moirae-projektið ein at hugsa um, hvat tað generelt er, ið ger, at júst teir og teir tónleikarnir hava tikið seg saman og gjørt ein tónleikarbólk, ella við øðrum orðum, hvussu verður ein stabilur bólkasamleikin skaptur. Tað eru allarhelst nógvar frágreiðingar uppá hetta, men tað er í ø... |
Another thing that causes Moirae’s debut album not to be an overwhelmingly strong and attention-grabbing experience is, as mentioned above, that their main sources of inspiration are relatively many years old. I of course should not dictate where bands should seek inspiration, but it seems strange to me that practicall... | BLARK_translated | Eitt annað, ið ger, at debutfløgan hjá Moirae ikki er eitt ovurhonds sterkt og tilvitskuøkjandi upplivilsi, er, sum nevnt omanfyri, at teirra høvuðsinspiratiónskeldur hava lutfalsliga nógv ár á baki. Undirritaði skal sjálvandi ikki diktera, hvar tónleikarbólkar skulu leita sær íblástur, men tað tykist mær løgið, at púr... |
It is no secret that Moirae is a group of talented musicians with good potential, but before they release their next album, they should together figure out which direction to take. | BLARK_translated | Tað er tó eingin loyna, at Moirae er ein bólkur við evnaríkum tónleikarum og góðum potentialum, men áðrenn teir geva næstu fløguna út, áttu teir í felag at funnið útav, hvar leiðin skal ganga. |
The World Health Organization (WHO) decided many years ago that the 1990s should be the decade of the brain. This was, among other things, to stimulate brain research. | BLARK_translated | World Health Organization (WHO) avgjørdi fyri nógvum árum siðani at 1990'ini skuldu vera tíggjuárið hjá heilanum. Hetta var millum annað fyri at stimbra heilagranskingina. |
In conclusion, it should be said that if one wishes to be able to switch off the ventilator for brain-dead patients to shorten the process when all functions gradually fail, it is an advantage to have a legally established brain-death criterion. If one wishes to use the possibility of organ transplantation, it is neces... | BLARK_translated | Sum ein niðurstøða skal sigast, at um man ynskir, at man skal kunna sløkkja respiratorin hjá heiladeyðum sjúklingum fyri at stytta prosessina har øll gøgnini so hvørt svíkja, er tað ein fyrimunur at hava eitt lógarfest heiladeyðskriterium. Um man ynskir at nýta møguleikan fyri gøgntransplantatión er tað neyðugt at hava... |
Much has happened in the Faroese business sector since the 1980s. One new thing is the Enterprise Fund, which has been much in the news in the Faroe Islands recently. We have tried to find out what this fund does. We have spoken with Heini Fosaa, who is the vice-chairman of the board of the Enterprise Fund. | BLARK_translated | Nógv er hent í føroyska vinnulívinum síðani áttatiárini. Eitt nýtt er Framtaksgrunnurin, sum hevur verið nógv frammi í Føroyum seinastu tíðina. Vit hava roynt at finna út av, hvat hesin grunnur ger. Vit hava tosað við Heina Fosaa, sum er næstformaður í nevndini fyri Framtaksgrunnin. |
Heini says that he is primarily a timber merchant, and has training in the sale of building materials, and he is the deputy chairman of the board of the Enterprise Fund. But his civilian job is manager at Havnar Timber Shop. He is only 30 years old. | BLARK_translated | Heini fortelur frá, at hann er timburhandlari fyrst og fremst, og hevur útbúgving innan sølu av byggitilfari, og so er næstformaður í nevndini í Framtaksgrunninum. Men sivila arbeiði hansara er stjóri í Havnar Timburhandli. Hann er bert 30 ára gamal. |
Why was the Framtaksgrunnur founded — was it to save the fish market and fish processing? | BLARK_translated | Hví varð Framtaksgrunnurin stovnaður, var tað fyri at bjarga Fiskasøluni og Fiskavirking? |
There is a capital fund (equity) of 2 million and then a loan from the Danish state and the Faroese national treasury of 99 million each; these loans are interest- and repayment-free for 10 years. The fund is set up as a commercial (for-profit) fund, i.e. it is established with a profit motive. The investments we make ... | BLARK_translated | Tað er eitt stovnsfæ (eginkapitalur) uppá 2 milliónir og so eitt lán í danska statinum og tí føroyska landskassanum uppá 99 mió. hvør, hesi lán er rentu og avdráttarfrí í 10 ár. Grunnurin er stovnaður sum ein vinnurekandi grunnur, tvs. hann er stovnaður við vinning fyri eygað. Investeringar, sum vit gera, eru roknaðar ... |
How do you get influence when you enter a company? | BLARK_translated | Hvussu fáa tit ávirkan um tit fara inn í eitt virki? |
Aren't there only a few companies that receive money from you? | BLARK_translated | Er tað ikki fáar fyritøkur, sum fáa pengar frá tykkum? |
Of the companies that received material from us that was useful and also required work from the company, quite a lot received something from us. A large portion of those who applied at first had misunderstood this fund, and when we then asked for more material, they came back with more, and many have received [support]... | BLARK_translated | Av teimum fyritøkum, vit hava fingið tilfar sum er nýtiligt, sum eisini krevur eitt arbeiði av tí fyritøkuni, eru tað rættiliga nógvar, sum hava fingið frá okkum. Ein stórur partur av teimum, sum søktu fyrst høvdu misskilt henda grunnin, og tá vit so bóðu um meira tilfar, komu tær aftur við meira, og tá hava nógvar fin... |
No, I don’t think so. But the business sector we have today has better conditions than what there was in the ’80s. Another thing that matters is that many companies have been restructured, and this makes it easier for them to keep operations running, so I don’t believe that capital injections will be necessary to the e... | BLARK_translated | Nei, tað haldi eg ikki. Men tað vinnulívið, sum vit hava í dag, hevur betur fortreytir enn tað, sum var í 80unum. Eitt annað, sum hevur týdning, er, at tað eru nógvar fyritøkur, sum eru vorðnar saneraðar, og hetta ger tað lættari fyri tær at fáa raksturin at mala runt, so eg trúgvi ikki, at tað verður neyðugt við kapit... |
Is it not possible to get a better deal than the current one? | BLARK_translated | Er tað ikki møguligt at fáa eina betri avtalu enn tað núverandi? |
It has been tried several times, and I don’t believe it can be done. The problem is that we as an export market for the EU are so incredibly small. Usually we talk with Denmark, who are sympathetic to us, while negotiations with the EU are conducted with large fishing nations such as e.g. England and Spain, who get in ... | BLARK_translated | Tað hevur man roynt fleiri ferðir, og eg trúgvi ikki uppá, at tað letur seg gera. Trupulleikin er, at vit sum útflútningsmarknaður fyri ES eru so ómetaliga lítil. Vanliga tosa vit við Danmark, sum hava sympati fyri okkum, meðan samráðingar við ES ganga við stórar fiskivinnutjóðir sum td. Ongland og Spania, sum seta føt... |

It is often said that the EU is nothing more than a large bureaucracy, and that democracy has a hard time in the union. People imagine a bunch of suit‑and‑tie civil servants in Brussels who are mostly interested in making rules about the sizes of sour apples and the angle of cucumbers. | BLARK_translated | Ofta verður havt á lofti, at ES ikki er annað enn eitt stórt skrivstovuveldi, og at fólkaræðið hevur ring kor í samveldinum. Fólk síggja fyri sær ein herð av slipsaklæddum embætismonnum í Bruxelles, sum mest av øllum hava áhuga í at smíða reglur um støddir av súreplum og um vinkulin á bananum. |
The situation in the Faroe Islands is furthermore characterized by the fact that little or nothing is said about a possible Faroese membership, and what this would entail, both in terms of advantages and disadvantages. This is an unfortunate situation, considering that the majority of countries in Europe today are eith... | BLARK_translated | Støðan í Føroyum er harafturat sermerkt av, at lítið og einki verður tosað um møguligan føroyskan limaskap, og hvat hetta hevði ført við sær, bæði av fyrimunum og vansum. Hetta er ein óheppin støða, tá ið hugsað verður um, at meginparturin av londunum í Evropa í dag antin eru limir í felagsskapinum ella eru áhugað í li... |
The purpose of this article is to explain a little about how the EU community works and what it has accomplished - especially seen from a legal perspective. It looks at judgments about possible consequences of Faroese membership, as well as the influence the EU still has on the Faroes when we are outside of it. | BLARK_translated | Ætlanin við hesi greinini er at greiða eitt sindur frá, hvussu ES-felagsskapurin virkar, og hvat hann hevur avrikað - serliga sæð úr einum løgfrøðiligum sjónarhorni. Hugt verður at dømum um møguligar avleiðingar av føroyskum limaskapi, eins og teirri ávirkan, ES kortini hevur á Føroyar, verða vit uttanfyri. |
The Rome Treaty gradually abolished customs duties among the community and established a common external tariff against third countries and required the member states to remove all other obstacles to free trade among themselves. The aim was to ensure that the factors of production — labor, capital and commerce — were f... | BLARK_translated | Rómsáttmálin avtók stigvíst sínámillum tollin í felagsskapinum og ásetti felagstoll mótvegis triðjalondum og álegði limalondunum at avtaka allar aðrar forðingar fyri fríum sínamillum samhandli. Endamálið var at tryggja, at framleiðslufaktorarnir - arbeiðsmegi, kapitalur og handil - fingu frítt at ferðast um landamørkin... |
Over the years the association, through its various institutions, has worked toward closer cooperation among the member countries, particularly by coordinating the laws of the countries more and more. | BLARK_translated | Í gjøgnum árini hevur felagsskapurin gjøgnum ymsu stovnar sínar arbeitt fram ímóti einum nærri samstarvi ímillum limalondini, serliga við at samskipa lógirnar í londunum meira og meira. |
The most important rules of the common market are the basic rules about the so‑called “four freedoms”. These are the rules that goods, persons, services and capital must be able to move freely across borders. The idea behind this is that the easier the factors of production can move between countries, the greater the w... | BLARK_translated | Tær týdningarmestu reglurnar um felagsmarknaðin eru grundreglurnar um tey sonevndu "fýra frælsini". Tað eru reglurnar um, at vørur, persónar, tænastuveitingar og kapitalur skulu kunna ferðast frítt um landamørkini. Hugsanin aftanfyri hetta er, at jú lættari framleiðslufaktorarnir ferðast ímillum londini, jú størri verð... |
What will put the four freedoms into effect are the rules that all customs duties and charges having equivalent effect must be abolished between the member states, that import quotas and measures having equivalent effect must be abolished, and that services may be provided across borders without obstacles. Workers must... | BLARK_translated | Tað, sum skal seta tey fýra frælsini í verk, eru reglurnar um, at allur tollur og avgjøld við líknandi ávirkan skulu avtakast millum limalondini, innflutningskvotur og tiltøk við líknandi ávirkan skulu avtakast, og at tænastuveitingar uttan forðingar kunnu veitast um landamørk. Arbeiðstakararnir skulu hava møguleika at... |
It is clear that the fundamental idea behind the common market is that free competition creates the greatest economic value, and therefore should be given the best possible conditions to operate under. | BLARK_translated | Tað sæst, at grundhugsanin undir felagsmarknaðinum er, at tað er fría kappingin, sum skapar størst búskaparlig virði, og sum sostatt skal hava best møgiligu treytir at virka undir. |
But the EU guarantees more than just market freedoms. Equality, consumer and environmental protection are also parts of the EU legal system. In the well-known "Defrenne" judgment a Belgian flight attendant prevailed in her claim for the same pay that was paid to men for the same work. This was based on the article in t... | BLARK_translated | Tó tryggjar ES annað enn bert marknaðarkreftirnar. Javnstøða, brúkara- og umhvørvisvernd eru eisini partar av ES-rættarskipanini. Í kenda "Defrenne-dóminum" fekk ein belgisk flogterna viðhald í kravi sínum um somu løn, sum varð goldin mannfólki fyri sama arbeiði. Hetta var grundað á greinina í Rómsáttmálanum um javnløn... |
The main institutions in the EU are the Council of Ministers, the Commission, the European Parliament and the Court of Justice. Power in the EU is divided among these institutions and they have different "weight", among other things when it comes to legislation. The powers that the institutions have are assigned to the... | BLARK_translated | Høvuðsstovnarnir í ES eru ráðharraráðið, kommissiónin, evropaparlamentið og dómsstólurin. Valdið í ES er býtt millum hesar stovnar og teir hava ymsa "vekt", m.a. tá ið talan er um lóggeving. Heimildirnar, sum stovnarninr hava, eru tillutaðar teimum ígjøgnum teir ymsu sáttmálarnar, sum ES er grundað á. |
The Council of the EU, which is made up of ministers from the member states, has the task of ensuring the coordination of the member states’ economic policy. The Council adopts the EU legislation that is to promote the single market — most often in the form of directives that require member states to implement certain ... | BLARK_translated | ES-ráðið, sum er samansett av ráðharrum úr limalondunum, hevur sum uppgávu at tryggja samskipanina av búskaparliga politikkinum hjá limalondunum.

In the early years representatives from various member countries sat in the parliament, as we know it from the Nordic Council, but since 1979 the members have been directly elected. In its early years the parliament only had an advisory role, and had no direct influence on EU legislation. The parliament was also charac... | BLARK_translated | Fyrstu árini sótu tinglimir úr ymsu limalondunum í parlamentinum, eins og vit kenna tað frá norðurlandaráðnum, men síðani 1979 hava limirnir verið beinleiðis valdir. Parlamentið hevði fyrstu árini einans ráðgevandi støðu, og hevði onga beinleiðis ávirkan á ES-lóggávuna. Parlamentið var harafturat merkt av, at limirnir ... |
The EU also has an auditing office, a common bank and an ombudsman modeled after the Nordic example. The national leaders meet in the European Council to set out the broad lines on the map. | BLARK_translated | ES hevur eisini ein gransskoðarastovn, ein felagsbanka og ein umboðsmann eftir norðurlendskari fyrimynd. Ríkisleiðararnir hittast í tí Evropeiska ráðnum at seta stóru linjurnar út í kortið. |
As mentioned earlier, the customs union is an important part of the EU system. Member states must abolish internal customs and have a common external tariff towards third countries. This also means that tariff preferences that, for example, a third country has vis-à-vis member states must be abolished. However, this is... | BLARK_translated | Sum áður nevnt, er tollsamgongan týðandi partur av ES-skipanini. Limalondini skulu avtaka innanhýsistoll og hava felags toll mótvegis triðjalondum. Hetta merkir eisini, at tollfyrimunir, sum eitt nú triðjalond hava mótvegis limalondum, skulu avtakast. Hetta er tó eitt øki, sum lýsir ógvuliga væl, hvussu liðilig ES-skip... |
The Faroe Islands can, as part of the Realm, become a member of the EU as part of Denmark’s membership. It is possible, however, to negotiate conditions and exceptions so that the Faroe Islands obtain exemptions from certain EU rules. If the Faroe Islands become independent, there will likely be no prospects for member... | BLARK_translated | Føroyar kunnu sum partur av ríkisfelagsskapinum gerast limur í ES sum partur av danska limaskapinum. Samráðast kann tó um treytir og sømdir, so at Føroyar fáa undantøk frá ávísum ES-reglum. Gerast Føroyar sjálvstøðugar, eru helst eingi útlit fyri limaskapi á jøvnum føti við hini limalondini - Luxembourg er higartil min... |
It is important that Faroese people understand clearly what EU cooperation actually involves and, based on that, assess the advantages and disadvantages of membership or a trade agreement. Faroese people are generally well informed about the EU’s fisheries policy, but should pay more attention to other parts of EU coop... | BLARK_translated | Tað er umráðandi, at føroyingar gera sær greitt, hvat ES-samarbeiðið í veruleikanum snýr seg um og út frá hesum meta um fyrimunir og vansar av limaskapi ella handilsavtalu. Føroyingar eru sum heild væl kunnaðir um fiskivinnupolitikkin hjá ES, men áttu at givið sær størri far um aðrar partar av ES-samarbeiðinum. |

The Faroese nation has survived thanks to the isolation and the political autonomy we have had. But isolation no longer matters, and as Denmark is integrated into the EU and common affairs thereby become EU affairs, our political autonomy also diminishes. We are gradually sliding into the EU as a Danish region. | BLARK_translated | Føroyska tjóðin hevur yvirlivað takkað verið isolatiónini og tí politiska sjálvræði, vit hava havt. Men isolatiónin hevur ongan týdning longur, og so hvørt sum Danmark verður integrerað í ES og felagsmálini harvið gerast ES-mál, minkar eisini okkara politiska sjálvræði. Vit glíða so við og við inn í ES sum danskur land... |
The Faroese people were then given a period for reflection - and in January 1974 the Løgting (parliament) unanimously agreed that we should remain outside. | BLARK_translated | Føroyingar fingu so eina umhugsunartíð - og í januar í 1974 samtykti Løgtingið einmælt, at vit skuldu verða verandi uttanfyri. |
Now the Faroe Islands were suddenly to negotiate fishing rights with other countries themselves. And the only provision that existed about this was § 8 in the law: "After consultation with the Faroese Home Rule, the Home Rule shall, in individual cases, be given the opportunity to pursue the Faroe Islands' special inte... | BLARK_translated | Nú skuldu Føroyar brádliga sjálvar samráðast við onnur lond um fiskivinnurættindi. Og einasta heimild sum fanst um hetta, var § 8 í lógini: "Eftir samráð við føroyska heimastýrið verður í teimum einstøku førunum givið heimastýrinum høvi at røkja Føroya serligu áhugamál við tingingum við útheimin um handils- og fiskivin... |
This was in practice interpreted to mean that the home rule government obtained the sovereign right to negotiate with other countries on fisheries agreements. The same has applied with regard to trade agreements. | BLARK_translated | Hetta bleiv nú í praksis tulkað soleiðis, at heimastýrið fekk suverenan rætt at samráðast við onnur lond um fiskivinnuavtalur. Viðvíkjandi handilsavtalum hevur tað sama gjørt seg galdandi. |
The only way to secure Faroese interests was to stretch the law so much that today, in many areas, we stand far outside what its letter permits. | BLARK_translated | Einasti møguleiki at tryggja føroysk áhugamál, var at tamba lógina so nógv, at vit í dag á fleiri økjum standa langt uttanfyri tað, hennara bókstavur loyvir. |
The purpose of a law in a democratic society is to regulate the relations between people in the way they want them regulated. When it no longer does that, it should be changed. But the Home Rule Act was never changed, even though it did not meet these conditions. Instead it has been patched so much that today we rely m... | BLARK_translated | Endamálið við eini lóg í einum demokratiskum samfelag er at regulera viðurskiftini millum menniskju soleiðis, sum tey vilja hava tey regulerað. Tá hon ikki longur ger tað, skal hon broytast. Men heimastýrislógin bleiv ongantíð broytt, hóast hon ikki uppfylti hesar treytir. Hon er í staðin tambað so nógv, at vit í dag b... |
What happened in the 1990s has shown that this practice is a completely useless basis. | BLARK_translated | Tað sum er hent í 1990'unum hevur víst, at henda siðvenja er eitt fullkomiliga óbrúkiligt grundarlag. |
The Danish home rule within the EU is, after all, becoming increasingly limited. At the moment 80% of the laws that are enacted in Denmark are EU laws. Before too long Denmark will probably be part of a common European currency. A common defense policy. A common foreign policy. | BLARK_translated | Danska heimastýrið í ES gerst jú støðugt meira avmarkað. Í løtuni eru 80% av lógunum, sum verða settar í gildi í Danmark, ES-lógir. Um ikki so langa tíð verður Danmark helst við í einum felags europeiskum valuta. Einum felags verjupolitikki. Einum felags uttanríkispolitikki.. |
