In Swedish, the language is called Svenska
In English, the language is called Swedish
"ä" from brända is a clue to it being either German or Swedish.
"bor" is a Norwegian word that means "to live". Since Norwegian words are similar to Swedish, but doesn't include the umlaut (the two dots above a letter), it could be the latter.
In Norwegian, the word for mountain is "fjell", not "berget"[the -et suffix means the word "the" is neutral [neither male nor female] singular subject; "berg" means "town" in Norwegian? berget doesn't make sense in Norwegian, but it does in Swedish.]
Both clues above concludes that it's Swedish

Must be a scandinavian language... I'd go for Swedish because of the brända.

It would seem to be a Scandinavian language, perhaps Swedish.

I'd say it comes from Island. Sigur Ros could sing it....
