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.See babel-samin for further details.

Support with ini locale file

Here is a minimal sample file with northernsami as the main language (assuming luatex, which is the recommended engine, and babel ≥24.14, although it may work with previous versions).

\documentclass[northernsami]{article}

\usepackage[provide=*]{babel}

\begin{document}

Local name $=$ davvisámegiella

Chapter $=$ \chaptername

Today $=$ \today

\end{document}
