Faroymal (Swedish: Fårömål; Fårö Gutnish) is the dialect of Gutnish spoken on the Baltic island of Fårö. The name "Fårö" (in Gutnish, Faroy) is derived from the words ö, meaning island, and probably far-, which is a word stem associated with travel, as in the Swedish verb fara (to travel). The name Fårö probably means 'the island you have to travel to' or 'the traveler's island'. Mainland Swedes might misinterpret the name Fårö to be derived from får, the Standard Swedish word for 'sheep', due to the many sheep on the island. That word is absent from Modern Gutnish, which uses the word lamm (which in Swedish means 'lamb') instead. Gotlanders describe Faroymal as sounding "coarse" and as characterized by "mumbling".
