The purpose of this empirical study is a detailed examination of the use of English nouns in the context of written Faroese in computer-mediated communication. The data is derived from one of the biggest Faroese online forums, Kjak.org. As this approach is unprecedented in the linguistic study of the Faroese language, the methodology will be based on comparable investigations into Faroese and other Scandinavian languages. However, the focus will be original in nature, due to the phenomena observed in the data. Paying attention to various variables that come into play in computer-mediated communication in general, such as the influence of features found in spoken language, as well as complex multilingualism, this paper will scrutinise aspects of both morphological and orthographical integration of English nouns. Most strikingly, unlike in previous studies on English loanwords in Faroese, the language material investigated here displays a wide range of creative ad-hoc strategies for solving a number of linguistic problems, such as the marking of morphological boundaries, ad-hoc gender assignment, as a means of breaking the hiatus etc. As the virtual absence of normative pressure in computer-mediated communication seems to be pivotal in this context, the role of language ideology will also be discussed in this paper. Urtak: AEtlanin við hesi empirisku rannsoknini er at gera eina nagreiniliga kanning av nýtsluni av ensk­um navnorðum i foroyskum skriftmali. Kann­ingin byggir a teldusamskifti, og kemur til­farið fra einum av teimum storstu foroysku on­line stoðunum, sum eru til, t.e. Kjak.org. Av ti at ein slik tilgongd til ensk lan ikki fyrr er gjord, er kanningarhatturin heintaður fra likn­andi kanningum av foroyskum og oðrum skand­i­naviskum malum, men kortini soleiðis, at fokus i greinini er serstakt, og kemur tað av teim­um fyribrigdum, sum koma fram i til­far­in­um. Við at gaa um teir ymisku variablarnar, sum hava týdning i samskifti við teldum al­ment, til domis avirkan fra talumalseyðkennum um­framt ogviliga samansettum fleirmaeli, so hev­ur verið granskað vael og virðiliga i hesi grein­ini baeði, hvussu navnorðini eru tillagað til bendingarskipanina, og hvussu tey eru til­lag­að til skriftmyndina. Fram kemur sjonliga, og tað er ikki saett fyrr i granskingini av ensk­um lanorðum i foroyskum, at fleiri kreativar ad-hoc loysnir eru valdar fyri at loysa ymiskar trup­ulleikar, sum markeringin av marki imill­um orð, ad-hoc kynstillutanir og at verður sett inn i ljoðglopp o.s.fr. Av ti at normativt trýst naestan ikki er til staðar i teldusamskifti sum hesum, er leikluturin hja malroktini eisini tikin til umroðu.
