Anyone with questions on Frisian language and its usage is welcome at the Language Desk. The desk answers all questions on spelling, phrasing and terminology and will provide useful tips and tricks about composing Frisian texts. The Language Desk is also available for translations. We are specialized in translating technical terms, primarily in notarial and official documents. A fee will be charged for translations.

“History is the witness that testifies to the passing of time; it illumines reality, vitalizes memory, provides guidance in daily life and brings us tidings of antiquity.”

“Skiednis is de tsjûge fan it ferstriken fan 'e tiid; it smyt ljocht op 'e wurklikheid, hâldt it ûnthâld libben, jout help yn it deistich libben en bringt ús tynge fan it ferline.” Cicero (106-43)
