Austrliais the largest island in the world and I think Greenland is either 2nd, 3rd, 5th, or 6th.
Madagascar belongs to Africa
Greenland is the world's largest island, with an area of 822,706 square miles. New Guinea is the second largest island at 488,400 square miles. Borneo is Asia's largest island and is 287,000 square miles.
The second largest island in the world is New Guinea. Greenland (not Australia) is the largest island.
New Guinea is the second largest actual island, just behind Greenland.The second largest island in the world is technically Africa, (after Eurasia) but continents, including Australia and Antarctica, are not defined as islands although they are surrounded by oceans.

Assuming that you take Australia to be an island, Greenland is the 2nd largest.
Greenland
Greenland is the world's largest island, with an area of 822,706 square miles. New Guinea is the second largest island at 488,400 square miles. Borneo is Asia's largest island and is 287,000 square miles.
New Guinea is the largest island located in the southwest area of the Pacific Ocean. It is the second largest island after Greenland.
This is a tricky question. Australia is a continent, but also closely resembles an island. So if you count Australia as an island, then the largest three islands in order are Australia, Greenland and New Guinea. If you don't count Australia as an island, then the largest three islands in order are Greenland, New Guinea, and Borneo. Followed by Madagascar, Baffin Island and Sumatra. And just to make it a little more complicated, some people claim that Greenland is not one island, but three small islands covered by a large layer of ice. So if you take that line of thinking, then just remove Greenland from whichever list above that you choose.
