I'm Norwegian, and when the kjöt came up, I was expecting the kj to make "sh" x]

[Mravinszky]

There is a small mistake in the subtitles at 1:21. It must be "gaffall" with double f.

It is a great video series! Takk fyrir! Mjög gott!

[kiddalingur]

@Mravinszky

double "L" becomes "TL" in Icelandic. Like "ÖLL" is "ÖTL".

[XxLIVRAxX]

Is very curious how the pronunciation of napking in Islandic is almost identical to its equivalent in Spanish, "servilleta"

[erdbeermund78]

@XxLIVRAxX It's the same in most of the big European languages. It comes from the French. Serviette.

[XxLIVRAxX]

@erdbeermund78 Thanks for the note :)

[bmbruch21]

Russian Icelandic and German did not originate from Latin.

[Slofta]

i mean likeness

[Slofta]

Even in Russian there is the same phonetic in some words with Icelandic and Russian and French and German because of the Latin origin.

[Fotografiet]

[jaghetermy]

Wow.. I really want to learn Icelandic. I'm Swedish and I think it's fantastic to see all similarities :D

[Vansio123]

did you now that sex in icelandic mean 6.....

[ElvenDane]

It does in Swedish too - imagine the really interesting conversations they could have between them ;-)

[gamrkidd]

These are very good videos but the language is peculiar!

if you can say napkin in icelandic you can say napkin in spanish! (servÍetta compared to servilleta, sounds exactly the same).. that is an oddity in the similarity between those two distinct languages

[CROPECKdotCOM]

and it's serwertka (diminutive of serweta) in Polish...

anyway i didn't know there is and Icelandic word for tip. in bars they always have some box with caption "TIPS" on it. that's probably because there is no something as tips in Icelandic culture and only tourists put anything in this boxes. they don't give tips and also don't want to take tips witch is pretty interesting.

[ElvenDane]

Well, not that odd after all - probably just one of the very few borrowed non-Norse or non-Germanic words in Icelandic.

( via Danish "serviet" most likely, where we in our turn probably got it from French )

[UglyCrazyWorthless]

Well it's basically the same in English, frenh and swedish (according to a comment on here) as well

[gamrkidd]

idk

[ignoratodo]
