Hello Vinícius, there has been a death in the family that is the reason we have not posted a new video, but we are looking forward to continue with the Icelandic lessons and we will be recording new material soon. Thank you for watching! ❤
@@allsber Oh, my condolences, it's really hard to lose someone that you love, specially from your family. This is such a good reason to stop making videos. God bless you and your family.
Icelandic is a very easy category 1 language, as every other Germanic language, whereas Chinese languages are category 10 languages with impossible characters and tonal pronunciation, and, even though every language is going to seem hard to a beginner, Icelandic is actually very easy to learn, Norse languages being some of the easiest languages to learn that are almost as easy as English and Dutch - I am now advanced level in Icelandic and Norwegian and close to advanced level in Norse etc, and I highly recommend learning all the prettiest languages ever created Norse / Gothic / Icelandic / Faroese / English / Dutch / Norwegian / Danish / Welsh / Breton / Cornish together as they are way too pretty not to know, and for resources, I recommend learning Icelandic from the yt vocab videos with 1.450 Icelandic words and hundreds and thousands of words in Icelandic and from the videos on grammar as well as song lyrics like Skáld songs and lyrics to Icelandic folk songs etc and also from G translate and Wkp and the Icelandic to English dictionary from the Net as well as the ws that has all the Icelandic declensions, plus there are some videos called Viltu Læra Íslensku? that are for upper intermediates, which are also very helpful with lots of new words!
I remember when I first watched this video when I started learning Icelandic, I didn’t know any of the words used as examples in the video, but now I know them all, which feels so good - learning Icelandic and Gothic and Norse is real fun, and I love learning these heavenly languages, which are very obsessive!
Hello from Bulgaria! It’s my dream to visit your beautiful country, which inspired me to learn the language. You have created incredibly helpful videos for beginners in Icelandic. I’m sorry for your loss of a loved one. I hope you find the strength to create more useful video lessons in the future.

For the icelandic beginners - these are the translations of the words used above (note: only "tálga" is a verb in this list, others - like "glott", grin, "ómur", sound - with identical words for verb and noun in english are the latter): áhugi - interest Baldur - male first name, name of a god in norse mythology draumur - dream arður - yield eldur - fire haglél - hailstorm furðulegt - amazing glott - grin hurð - door ilmur - smell/odour ísskápur - fridge jólahlaðsborð - christmas buffet köttur - cat langur - long myrkur - dark, darkness nánd - proximity orsök - reason/cause ómur - sound penni - pen ryksuga - vacuum cleaner sykur - sugar tálga - to carve undrandi - amazed/astonished úlfur - wolf, is also used as a male first name vörður - guard öxl - shoulder, armpit ylur - heat Ýmir - name of a giant in norse mythology þögult - silent, quiet æfing - exercise örmagna - exhausted

Takk fyrir! ...I was looking online how to pronounce the Icelandic alphabet (because I 'm learning your language since a week) and then I discovered your channel. ... It's easier to understand how the Icelandic alphabet is pronounced with your video and I really liked the way you teach it. You have 1 more subscriber! ... Greetings from Mexico ... I hope more videos like these!
thanks so much for using words as examples aswell, I know "names" of letters can slightly differ from its pronunciation in an actuall word so this helps a lot
Hello from the America! Your video is very helpful as I am learning Icelandic for my trip there in June 2019 to explore your beautiful country and to run the Midnight Sun Run half marathon in Reykjavík. Please do more or maybe a video about local places to see that tourists do not visit. Takk!
Icelandic is a very easy category 1 language, as every other Germanic language, and, even though every language is going to seem hard to a beginner, Icelandic is actually very easy to learn, Norse languages being some of the easiest languages to learn that are almost as easy as English and Dutch, plus Icelandic and Gothic and Norse have some of the easiest pronunciations and accents that are the easiest to imitate that are as easy as English pronunciation and the the neutral American accent and Dutch pronunciation and the Dutch accent with soft Gs and soft Rs, so I sounded native in Icelandic even when I was beginner level - I am now advanced level in Icelandic and Norwegian and close to advanced level in Norse etc, and I highly recommend learning all the prettiest languages ever created Norse / Gothic / Icelandic / Faroese / English / Dutch / Norwegian / Danish / Welsh / Breton / Cornish together as they are way too pretty not to know, and for resources, I recommend learning Icelandic from the yt vocab videos with 1.450 Icelandic words and hundreds and thousands of words in Icelandic and from the videos on grammar as well as song lyrics like Skáld songs and lyrics to Icelandic folk songs etc and also from G translate and Wkp and the Icelandic to English dictionary from the Net as well as the ws that has all the Icelandic declensions, plus there are some videos called Viltu Læra Íslensku? that are for upper intermediates, which are also very helpful with lots of new words!

This was actually super helpful. I heard that Icelandic is a rlly hard language to learn, but I rlly want to learn it. And there’s like no free apps that I can get, and it’s not like there’s any classes either. So this video was a huge help. Thx

Hey that was my first time pronuncing the alphabet. And I'm really good at it ! I really LOVE this Language, and the Icelandic people and the Country of course!! Thank you so much for this video. Now since I know I'm good at it I'm gonna start learning it for sure ! I love languages. I am Greek and I could spot some similarities at the alphabet and the pronunciation while I wasn't expecting it. I'm very excited about it !! +1 subscriber
Do most people in Iceland speak English too? We’re traveling there next month and I’m trying to learn some Icelandic but it’s so incredibly difficult 😩
Hey I really like your videos, can you put an English translation on each words too :? btw, does r in the last of the word sounds like "sh" in English? Thank you :)
Hey! Thank you for watching our video :) Ofcourse, I can out the translations in the description box. I have heard that english speaking people hear "sh" when there is an "r" in the end of the word, but personally I don't hear it haha. You can make your own judgement by listening to the words in this video, for example "ísskápur" and "vörður".
I have been in Iceland year ago. I love this country. Sorry, Iceland is not like another country. It is a planet :) I felt great there and I miss so much. I need to go once again. Thanks for this video. Icelandic language is really hard but this video helps a lot. The pronunciation of some of the letters is really funny. For example the pronunciation of H as /hau/ is very funny to me as a Pole, because in Polish /hau/ is the sound of barking dog :) But the biggest puzzle for me is the pronunciation of the letter L, I don't understand this way :) but anyway :)
R kind of sounds like a mix between "sh" and "g" (the g sound like in mirage) Interesting video, I'm gonna try to learn Icelandic in a couple months :D
It is not a rolled R at all, it is called a soft normal R aka a tap, and it doesn’t sound like sh or dgi at all lol, it is a normal R sound that is soft, that is, just barely touched and said fast, and some English words also have this type of R, and some Brazilian Portuguese words have it too! Germanic languages and especially Norse languages only use soft Rs, not harsh rolled Rs like Spanish which sound as an engine sound or motor sound! Icelandic and Norse have a soft normal R aka a tap, like some of the Rs used in Brazilian Portuguese and some of the Rs used in English and Dutch, and it can depend on the speaker actually, so there are some speakers that use harsh R in every language, but most speakers of Icelandic use a soft R, and I highly recommend saying the R as softly and as fast as one can, as R is one of the problematic sounds that only sound good when pronounced very softly and fast, and trying to prolong it automatically turns it into a rolled R which has the funny motor sound!
It is easy, and Spanish uses lisped Ds as well in words like nada, and English too in words like then and the and that, and Spanish from Spain has the lisped thorn sound as well - the eth sound ð is basically just a less obvious D sound which is slightly lisped as in Spanish and English, like when trying to say the D faster and in a less obvious way, whereas the thorn sound is þ is a less obvious T sound which is also slightly lisped as in the English words thinking and things and thought etc!
I don't understand your question. We say a letter and then a word containing that letter. In the description box you will find the translation for the words. Hope that helps 😊
@@MichaelSpengler The double L is usually a 'hard" TL sound (but not all the time!) But the single L is a soft sound like in many languages (for exempel in 'like')
L is a normal L like in most other languages, whereas LL is usually pronounced TL, so an extra T sound is included before the L sound, though in some words like héllo and in some names it is pronounced normally like a normal L without the T sound - the extra T sound is also included between the R and the N in words like skógarnir which is pronounced skougartnir, because it makes the words sound cooler, and when there is NN right after the ei / ey diphthongs, and possibly after the æ too, so, einn is pronounced eitn with a slightly nasal tn, so tn (also the tn in words like vatn) is always kinda nasalized in Icelandic and Norse and Faroese, but it’s the good type of nasal sound which sounds good as it is a closed nasal sound, not an open type of nasal sound like in French which sounds funny!
L is a normal L like in most other languages, whereas LL is usually pronounced TL, so an extra T sound is included before the L sound, so the word fjalla is pronounced fyatla and the word falla is pronounced fatla etc, though in some words like héllo and in some names it is pronounced normally like a normal L without the T sound - the extra T sound is also included between the R and the N in words like skógarnir which is pronounced skougartnir, because it makes the words sound cooler, and when there is NN right after the ei / ey diphthongs, and possibly after the æ too, so, einn is pronounced eitn with a slightly nasal tn, so tn (also the tn in words like vatn) is always kinda nasalized in Icelandic and Norse and Faroese, but it’s the good type of nasal sound which sounds good as it is a closed nasal sound, not an open type of nasal sound like in French which sounds funny!
Maybe some English loanwords may have it, but normally Norse languages use K instead of C and Q for the C sound, so cat is spellt katt / köttur / kat etc in Norse languages and in most other Germanic languages!

R kind of sounds like a mix between "sh" and "g" (the g sound like in mirage)
Interesting video, I'm gonna try to learn Icelandic in a couple months :D
It's kind of an unvoiced rolling R. It's like R in Spanish but don't make vibrations in your throat.
It is not a rolled R at all, it is called a soft normal R aka a tap, and it doesn’t sound like sh or dgi at all lol, it is a normal R sound that is soft, that is, just barely touched and said fast, and some English words also have this type of R, and some Brazilian Portuguese words have it too!

How hard must it be to have a lisp in Iceland
It is easy, and Spanish uses lisped Ds as well in words like nada, and English too in words like then and the and that, and Spanish from Spain has the lisped thorn sound as well - the eth sound ð is basically just a less obvious D sound which is slightly lisped as in Spanish and English, like when trying to say the D faster and in a less obvious way, whereas the thorn sound is þ is a less obvious T sound which is also slightly lisped as in the English words thinking and things and thought etc!

no "C"?
No we don't have "C"
Maybe some English loanwords may have it, but normally Norse languages use K instead of C and Q for the C sound, so cat is spellt katt / köttur / kat etc in Norse languages and in most other Germanic languages!
