Sognamål

Sognamål (literally "Sogn language") is a conservative Norwegian dialect which is spoken in the area of Sogn. One of the most prominent features of Sognamål is the pronunciation "ao" instead of "å" in many words, similar to Modern Icelandic. The viking/black metal band Windir from Sogndal used the Sognamål dialect in their lyrics.
