The article also examines the prestige and societal value of Frisian, its formal recognition, and the standardization of its norms, spelling, and grammar. Additionally, we look at the mandatory inclusion of Frisian in the educational system, its rich historical tradition and literature, and the significance of its independent language status, especially in the context of formal recognition by the Dutch government.
