Ólöf tala íslensku - Ólöf speaking Icelandic

[Niesbane]

Funny, I'm an intermediate learner in Norwegian and I agree with ObLiViOnZThEkIllEr, sounds a lot like Norwegian! The vocab obviously is much different :)

[kopenhagen5]

Hej,

You should do a regular segment on Iceland. You present perfectly and its a part of the world most don't know much about, especially here in the pacific, from downunder Oz.

[ObLiViOnZThEkIllEr]

Seems like she lost her icelandic, she almost has an accent on it. Sounds like norwegian :P

[Norlandsson2]

actualy get danish is harder

[Skraelingful]

I understood most. Swedish and Icelandic isn't that far off from each other, even after a 1000 years.

[12345678909269]

@Skraelingful Sant,samma här.

[nicotineplz1]

those 400.000 people smust be very interesting indeed for someone to want to learn icelandic

[Alvenbeen94]

@ILuvBritLouTayTay And that its very cold over there

[ignaciojork]

I would marry her even without understanding a word of what this beautiful girl said ...

[skyyblue17]

What a mysterious sounding lauguage... I wonder if ppl who don't speak english, hear it and think that its a beautiful language too? Hmmm.

[alexdesro92]

@skyyblue17 English does not sound that good.

[WhyYouJelly]

hahahaha. You're called Ólöf.

[zambe1294]

@XtremeLetsPlay I hope you're kidding ..

[Kurtortonta]

Hah. I understand alot of this. Swede here.

[Laxz0r1]

@Kurtortonta

Same, Norwegian here tho.

[geniepixels]

She sounds Welsh... but sha defiantly does NOT look Welsh.

Very hot.

[kottolerello]

@geniepixels Welsh and Icelandic share some interesting, uncommon phonological features like dental fricatives (voiced and unvoiced, both of which we spell as "th" in English) and a voiceless lateral fricative, which is like an "l" sound but very airy. IMHO, they're two of the most beautiful languages in the world :)

[H0llaZ1990]

NICE. I fucking understood it!

[kamilfrancoolczak]

its pretty sad to live in a dark for 6 months...

[Darianka7565]

@kamilfrancoolczak They dont live in dark for 6 months!! hahah are u kidding? haha

[barefootfiona]

Talking too fast! If it was slower I think I might understand more :)

[helhel1]

how i wish norwegian was like that instead of danish

[kevincpg]

" óg... " means " and..."

[audveltadmuna]

@kevincpg og* not óg

[cosmicforums]

Beautiful woman..beautiful language.

[Norica96]

I'm norwegian and I understood EVERYTHING of what she was saying.

[prnkstr]

@Norica96 Understood most of it as well, but not that weird considering they are two closely related languages..

[opsimathics]

omg it's Ingrid from "How to Train your Dragon"

[Dkmitl]

@opsimathics You meant astrid?

[julianallees]

Tout ce que j'ai compris est 'Ég heiti ólöf .....dóttir og ég er frá Islenski'

Icelandic is the only Nordic language I, as a Swede do not *fully* understand. It sounds like the parts of Norwegian that you don't quite grasp the meaning of.

Very beautiful, yet very familiar.

[astapetrea]

Já vi erum geðveik ! ;D

[swaterik1986]

Are u saying that the best thing about iceland is the cold!?! Im swedish and that is what it sounds to me.

[leifur1012]

english:

hello, my name is Ólöf Helga Gunnarsdóttir. I'm from Reykjavík, Iceland. what you need to know about icelandic people is that we are very irony, everybody her understands irony. and icelandic people are awesome :)

[MagicalSunrise1984]

@leifur1012

thanks!



[ghunnter]

Marry me.

[UAL320]

Can someone translate into english??

[caribbeanNO1]

icelandic sounds hard to speak, it sounds like clingon 

[elmargauti]

@caribbeanNO1 ahahahahahha

[TheNikz0rrr]

i am from finland and i think that icelandic is very beatiful language. :)

[PaulSLambeth]

Var síðasta orð "geðveikir" xD? Rétt hjá henni.

[barefootfiona]

@PaulSLambeth Hvad er 'geðveikir'?

[PaulSLambeth]

@barefootfiona Mentally insane/awesome.

[barefootfiona]
