Seksti

Photo Album: Flag Day

Today is my birthday, and Faroese flags are flying all around the town! Incidentally, it is also Flag Day, commemorating the creation of the first Faroese flag. This is the first time I have had my birthday on a holiday.

In Faroese, there are two words for “sixty” -

trýss is pronounced sort of like treush

seksti is pronounced sexty.

I think I prefer to say that I am seksti.
