Summary:

This study analyses the integration of vowel-final non-native nouns in Faroese based on written language material ranging from computer-mediated communication to traditional printed media. In order to gain a holistic insight into the underlying processes, both intralinguistic orthography, phonology, morphology as well as extralinguistic language norms, metalinguistic discourse factors are examined. Besides being the smallest and least researched modern-day Scandinavian language, Faroese also has one of Scandinavias youngest, most historicising orthographies, as well as a strong tradition of lexical purism. Its ideological climate is directly impacted by two polar opposites progressive Danish on the one hand, and conservative Icelandic on the other. The observed integration strategies are described as the result of both native and non-native analogical forces that lead to ongoing contact-induced language change, including the refunctionalisation of the silent grapheme .
