The Hoofnur language (Hoofnur: hoofniska maal) is a language spoken by the Hoofnur people. It is a fairly mixed language with its primary base evolving from Old Norse, subsequently being influenced by Inuit phonology and vocabulary.

The language is spoken in two main regions, each having their own dialect. The Maaknuna (Markland) dialect is spoken along the coast of central and southern Labrador and some areas of Newfoundland, while the Kalaalann (Greenland) dialect is spoken in Greenland. There is also a standard dialect called Standard Hoofnur.
