Njufaundlend (engl. Newfoundland,[4] franc. Terre-Neuve, lat. Terra Nova),[5] veliko je ostrvo na severoistočnoj obali Severnoj Americi i najnaseljeniji deo kanadske provincije Njufaundlend i Labrador. Ostrvu Njufaundlend (prvobitno nazvano Terra Nova) je verovatno ime dao Italijan Džon Kabot 1497, što je najstariji evropski naziv u Severnoj Americi. Provincija u kojoj se ovo ostrvo nalazilo zvala se Njufaundlend do 2001, kada je preimenovana u Njufaundlend i Labrador (poštanska skraćenica je promenjena iz NF u NL). Njufaundlend je odvojen od poluostrva Labrador prolazom Bel Il, a od Ostrva Kejp Breton Kabotovim prolazom. On zatvara ušće reke Sen Loren, stvarajući Zaliv Sen Lorens, najveći zaliv na svetu. Najbliži sused Njufaundlenda je mala prekomorska zajednica Sveti Pjer i Mikelon.

Površina ostrva je 108,860 km² i po tome je 16. po veličini ostrvo na svetu.[6] Njufaundlend i pridružena mala ostrva imaju ukupnu površinu od 111.390 kvadratnih kilometara.[7] Glavni grad provincije Sent Džons, osnovan je na jugoistočnom vrhu ostrva. Kejp Spier, južno od grada je najistočnija tačka Kanade. Ostrvo ima oko 485.000 stanovnika.

Stanovnici Njufaundlend izgovaraju „nju-fin-lend“ ili „nju-fan-lend“. Na Njufaundlendu se govori dijalektom engleskog jezika poznatom kao „njufaundlendski engleski“, dijalektom francuskog jezika poznatom kao „njufaundlendski francuski“ i dijalektom irskog jezika poznatog kao „njufaundlendski irski“. Prema zvaničnoj statistici popisa stanovništva Kanade iz 2006. godine, 57% stanovnika Njufaundlanda i Labradora je navelo da su britanskog ili irskog porekla, pri čemu 43,2% tvrdi da im je najmanje jedan roditelj Englez, 21,5% najmanje jedan roditelj Irac, a 7% najmanje jedan roditelj škotskog porekla. Pored toga, 6,1% tvrdi da je bar jedan roditelj francuskog porekla.[8] Ukupna populacija ostrva prema popisu iz 2006. godine iznosila je 479.105.

Istorija uredi

Njufaundland je dugo bio naseljen domorodačkim narodima kulture Dorseta, Biotacima, koji su govorili sada izumrli biotački jezik.

Ostrvo je verovatno posetio islandski istraživač Lejf Erikson u 11. veku, koji je zemlju na koju je naišao nazvao „Vinland“.[9] Prva potvrđena poseta bila je od strane Nordijaca koji su izgradili privremenu bazu u Lansi Medouz, nordijsko naselje u blizini najsevernijeg vrha Njufaundlanda (rt Norman), koje je datirano na pre oko 1000 godina. Ovo mesto se smatra jedinim neospornim dokazom o pretkolumbovskom kontaktu između Starog i Novog sveta, ako se ne računa nordijsko-inuitski kontakt na Grenlandu.

Smatralo se da je Pojnt Rosi, na jugozapadu Njufaundlanda, drugo nordijsko nalazište sve dok iskopavanja 2015. i 2016. nisu otkrila nikakve dokaze o prisustvu Nordijaca.[10]

Dana 5. avgusta 1583. godine, Hamfri Gilbert je proglasio Njufaundland kao prvu prekomorska koloniju Engleske pod Kraljevskom poveljom kraljice Elizabete I, čime je zvanično uspostavljena preteča znatno kasnijeg Britanskog carstva.[11] Njufaundland se smatra najstarijom britanskom kolonijom.[12]

Imigranti su razvili različite dijalekte povezane sa naseljavanjem na ostrvu: njufaundlandski engleski, njufaundlandski francuski.[13] U 19. veku je takođe postojao dijalekt irskog poznat kao njufaundlandski irski.[13] Blisko srodan dijalekat škotskom gelskom takođe je govoren na ostrvu tokom 19. i ranog 20. veka, posebno u oblasti doline Kodroj, uglavnom među doseljenici sa ostrva Kejp Breton, Nova Škotska.[14] Gelska imena su odražavala povezanost sa ribolovom: na škotskom gelskom ostrvo se zvalo Eilean a' Trosg, doslovno 'Ostrvo bakalara';[15] Slično, irski naziv Talamh an Éisc znači 'Zemlja riba'.
