Harlingerland Frisian is an extinct dialect of the East Frisian language. It was known for giving several features originally in Old Frisian. The language was only documented in the year 1691 with the book Memoriale linguae Frisicae, by Johann Cadovius-Müller. This dialect then slowly vanished and was displaced by the Harlings dialect of Low German. It belonged to the Weser dialects alongside the Wursten and Wangerooge Frisian dialects.

Sample text

Below is a translation of the Lord's Prayer and a comparison with the Saterland Frisian translation.

Harlingerland Frisian Saterlandic Frisian
Uhse vaahr, di jom sint in den hihmel, gefihret wiss juhse nomme,
tookuhme uhs jouse ryhck,
jouse will geschia as im hihmel, zo auck up eerden,
uhse diggelyckse broode rayck uhs duling uhn veryff uhs,
uhse schilde, as wy aück veryffen uhse schildeners,

Ommen.
Uus Foar in dän Hemel, din Nome wäide heliged,
läit dien Riek boalde kume, läit din Wille geskjo so in dän Hemel as ap ju Äide.
Dou uus dälig dät Brood, dät wie bruke.
Un ferreke uus uus Skeelden, so as wie ze uus Skeeldlju-dene ferroat häbe.
Un lede uus nit in
Fersäikenge, man rädde uus fóar dät Kwode. Dan dienen is dät Riek un ju Krääft un ju Heerdelkaid bit in alle Eeuwigaid.
Amen.
