[Skraelingful]

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

@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 :)
