Northern Sami

This page offers basic guidance on typesetting a LaTeX document in the Northern Sami language using the Latin script.

Support with the traditional way (ldf)

The Northern Sami language is supported in babel in the ‘classical’ way based on a ldf file.

Support with ini locale file

Here is a minimal sample file with northernsami as the main language, with luatex.

\begin{document}

Local name $=$ davvisámegiella

Chapter $=$ \chaptername

Today $=$ \today

\end{document}
