If I'd been more on the ball I'd have got in before Simon gave the answer - for some reason I was reading about Norn on Wikipedia on Friday and recognised it from reading that. Oh poo!

The text is a colang, mixing, Scandinavian, English, Italian. Maybe is a slang on Finnish-Swedish, spoken by immigrants. I searched all Germanic language at www.christusrex.org/www1/pater/index.html
