Fagre Nye Verden

Fagre Nye Verden is the name of a very famous book called Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. Fagre Nye Verden is Brave New World translated into a foreign language. What language is the title Fagre Nye Verden written in?

Fagre Nye Verden

—   New World

Two of the three words line up quite well. I admit when I first saw that title, I was stunned and I was thinking, “What language is that?”
