Hrafna: "Strong R"
Scots: "ARe ya challenge me lass?"
RGMUFC1 i read this comment in murtagh’s voice from Outlander hahaha
@@ItsMeLisq, never saw it, but after i read your comment i watched on YT this Murtagh dude, and i think i will watch few episodes, when i'll have time, maybe i'll enjoy watching it. Couse it's filmed in nature and not studio, well most of a time? Maybe????
@@RGMUFC1 Outlander is awesome... starts a little strange, but really kicks off :)
as a scottish icelander I don't know what to say to this hahaha! Everyone also laughs at me for having a really strong R even tho I now live in Australia with an Aussie accent
@@parismorgan4428 I don't care what people say, for me the best english accent is Scottish and personaly i would love to know people with strong R, yet we in Slovenia have nice R, we who are not good in English, when we say R, we sound almost like Russians 😂
3:02 - That's clearly a Danish person pronouncing Balder in Danish, while speaking English.
Ottawa3453 yes!
The danglish is strong in this one.
Being danish myself, yes it's a dane speaking english as well.
@@DrJones0801 I still can't realy understand how Danes get the "D" so far back in their throat
@@DrJones0801 *G! I ment G.
*Fun fact:* Fenrir the wolf is actually Loki’s child in Norse mythology.
So is Jörmungandr
So is Odins horse, sleipnir
@@TheTrueAegonTargaryen yes it is, in Danish we say Sleipner, which is why the icelandic is a bit more norse.
Hella as well
In Norse mythology Loki has had three wives and is a fire giant not an ice giant
" I think it sounds so much cooler in Icelandic" ...OH YEAH!! it so does!
You could read Edda's poetry for us in Icelandic and compare it to the English translation.
And there're some bands and singers that sing using some Edda's and also about the norse culture, maybe you could react to them (for example Wardruna, Gealdýr, and Sigurboði Grétarsson)
To me she could complete chapters from the eddas without any comparing whatever. Just listening to the sound would probably addicted. Could do that for hours.
There is an edition of _Poetic Edda,_ edited by Hollander, with the Norse and English on facing pages. www.goodreads.com/book/show/381112.The_Poetic_Edda
@@michaelsommers2356 But she'd need to use a version with a modernized spelling, because the Old Norse spelling was different from the modern Icelandic one. Sometimes the same sound is written with a different letter and sometimes a word is written as today but with a different pronunciation...
It's a bit like asking an Italian reading Latin, or an Irish speaker reading Old Irish, or a Greek speaker to read Old Greek. The pronunciation will be wrong all the time because the pronunciation and spelling of all these languages have changed a lot in the course of time...
@@gerald4013 Modern Icelandic is a lot closer to Old Norse than Italian is to Latin, or Modern Irish is to Old Irish, or Modern English is to Old English or even Middle English. It is close enough that I doubt, although I don't know for sure, that there are such things as translations of Old Norse literature into Modern Icelandic.
I never claimed that sounds have not changed between Old Norse and Modern Icelandic. Sounds change all the time in all languages. Look up the original pronunciation productions of Shakespeare at the Globe, linguistically supervised by David Crystal (here's his son Ben doing a passage in OP: ruclips.net/video/qYiYd9RcK5M/видео.html ). There are sound changes going on in English at this very moment (in parts of the US, words like 'raw' are turning into 'rah'.
At any rate, I was just pointing out that if anyone wants to compare the Norse to English, there is at least one source already available.
Here is a scholar of Old Norse reading and translating a few bits of "Vǫluspá", the first poem in the _Poetic Edda:_ ruclips.net/video/Bk57etreTBw/видео.html
Jotunheim is also a mountain range in Norway.
I actually was gonna comment this, but then I saw your comment.
I was about to comment on a comment which stated what I was going to comment, but then I saw your comment commenting that comment so now I don't know anymore...
and I was about to....
Forget it, your comment is actually valid.
Ye this girl is totally wrong...
it was named in the 18 or 19th century probably, because Norse Myhtology was completely forgotten until the Icelandic manuscripts were brought to Denmark
(Lots of English spelling)
Baldur - 2:20
Nanna - 3:43
Forseti - 3:48
Breidablik - 4:08
Asgard - 4:28
Asir & Asynjur 4:42
Midgard - 4:55
Sif - 5:05
Jotunheim - 5:41
Jotnar - 5:50
Valkyrie - 6:29
Valhalla - 7:03
Tyr - 7:32
Fenris - 7:47
Bragi - 8:35
Freyr - 8:54
Njordur - 9:03
Freya - 9:09
The english names are a lot closer to modern Danish.
Including Fenrir, or as we call him, fenris ulven (the fenris wolf)
Fenrisulven also come from an Old Norse word, Fenrisúlfr, which simply means "Fenrir's wolf". Btw, Fenrir means "fen-dweller".
I wondered why some people say fenris instead of fenrir
In Sweden we have two ways of namin Fenrir either Ulven Fenrir or Fenrisulven and in some cases also Fenrisvargen since we do use Varg more often then Ulv to describe a wolf.
The game God Of War actually did pretty well in pronouncing some of these in my opinion (especially by Mimir). Definitely great to know how these are pronounced in Modern Icelandic!
I think they got icelandic people to pronunce a lot of words in the game also tha bacground music is made by an icelandic chore sorry for bad english
probably because mimir is voiced by a scottish person
This was honestly fascinating to me. I love accents and languages and Icelandic is definitely among my favourites, along with Gaelic and Welsh. I can't speak them unfortunately, but they sound so beautiful and ancient to me
I always come back The Hrafna Icelandic Show from that region.Here in the U.S. it seems the stories are not delivered the sameway.
They loose
Me and are not told in the same vane as the Icelandic version's.

>Fenrir is becoming a very popular name in Iceland
Holy crap it is happening, Fenrir awakens to eat the sun :O
I believe Fenrir's kids, Skoll and Hati, eat the moon and sun respectively.
@@TheMidgardViking yes
@@TheMidgardViking Fenrir devours Odin
There are a few different versions of who eats the sun.
Some versions say that Fenrir eats the sun
Others say that his son Skoll eats the sun while his daughter Hati eats the moon
And then there are others that say it's the reverse with Hati eating the sun and Skoll eating the moon.
So yeah, it can get pretty confusing :P
Valha[tl]a? Amazing. I live in a suburb called Valhalla, so I'm going to insist on pronouncing it properly from now on. 💜
Valhalla has many street names taken from Norse mythology, including Freya, Baldur, Thor, among others. Thank you for teaching us these pronunciations. Icelandic is a gorgeous language.
Fun fact: Although Icelandic have a "TL" sound for "LL", Old Norse reconstructed 1200 pronunciation, pronounce the "LL" sound as an elongated "L" sound
avengers is on tv in germany right now and i was literally telling my mom about your norse mythology pronounciation video and now you're uploading a part 2?? this is some voodoo shit
wtf lol
Omg such a coincidence! That's amazing! Alert the Pope!
How is this voodoo?
That profile picture is horrifying.
The guy reading at 3:01 is definitely danish even though he speaks English. His pronunciations of the names is very Danish
so i'm not the only one? XD he wasn't even finishes with his first word and i was like: he's danish!
I can confirm, I'm Danish as well
Luckily though, I sound nothing like him lol
@@sebastiangade me too! I count my self lucky I don't have a Danish accent
My guess is that we are 3 danes here 😂
lol alle danskere kan høre det
When I hear the Icelandic accent , I melt
Drink every time she says “Icelandic”
Time to get wasted...
Skål! 🍻
U want us to die??
The bloke reading out the names sounds very Danish, hence the pronunciation of Baldur/Nanna as Bälder and Nänna
When you speak in your native tongue, it's very gentle, and flows beautifully.
I'd add that Marvel uses a Western Interpretation of Norse Mythology, and isn't "literally based on it:" like the names in "Clash of the Titans."
When you hear the original Thor, before the Westernization, he actually uses the original Norse version of the name.
I honestly wish they'd gotten Icelandic people to play the roles of the Asgardians, but then we wouldn't have gotten the two best characters: Hemsworth, and Hiddleston.
Right! Kindof torn.
I might be American but I would say marvel Thor is just fine but only because he’s based on the comic book character.
Now if they were going for something more authentic then I would DEFINITELY want a Icelandic actor for Thor .
I think the same itd be nice to hear the charas native language proper but also omg hiddleston ks like the perfect loki i adore him
@@andrewperea1879 100% this. If going more authentic then yea.
Is "westernize" really the right word? I mean, the Norse conquered parts of England and France several times. Also, Norse mythology is kind of a branch of Germanic mythology, and thus the Anglo-Saxons were worshipping those same gods (or their versions of them) when they conquered Great Britain.
Usually you use "westernize" to mean a Europeanization of something from outside Europe (or at least western Europe).
Love hearing you talk. Makes it easier to learn
I love your channel Hrafna! Thank you💕
In Brazil, Valkyrja/Valquiria is a very common name.
I am very glad if you do the part three, it's very interesting learn the right pronunciation of this words.
Thank you very much.
WOW! Your English is AMAZING! You are very easy to understand, and I love that you still have a hint of your own accent. Thank you for making these videos! :)
I like your personality and honesty... very genuine.
Yes part three!! I adore the Icelandic language, it's so beautiful and I love hearing how to pronounce these names properly! You do it so well and I feel like I can actually learn to say them
I'm making a D&D nordic set and your channel serves me a lot. Thank you!
All your videos are wonderful thanks 🙏
Fantastic. Please make a part 3.
It’s so interesting cause we germans have the same old mythology’s but also completely different pronunciation.. like Odin would be Wotan in the old Germanic culture :D
When my friends say Americans don’t pronounce the Norse names and place names properly; I remind them that when compared to Northern Germanic/Scandinavian people’s Southern Germanic people’s had different names and pronunciations for them. The English got their pronunciation from mainland Europe and Americans got theirs from the English. It changes with every group of people, but we are all part of the Germanic language family, so I don’t believe any pronunciation is wrong just shaped over time. Odin, Wotan and Woden for example.
@Johann Schulz We call it a lttle bit diffrent in german. Fenrir is Fenris, Freyr is called Frey, Valhalla is the Walhall or Walhalla, Aesir are the Asen (plural) or Ase (singular for male) and Asin for a female and a Valkyrie is eine Walküre.
@@Hrollief1 yay for linguistic drift
Actually German mythlogy was somehow different but pretty much nothing is known about it because noone wrote it down, only germanic religion that was written down was in Iceland
@Johann Schulz Those german are just translations made in 18th century, for a very long time Norse Mythlogy was completely forgotten except in Iceland
Please!!, play god of war, and talk about names and pronunciations in the game
Yes!
Yeah like wth is Hræzlyr meant to be???
Absolutely, im curious to see how the correct pronunciations sounds like in some the lore
The pronunciations in GoW are typical American pronunciations. Ö is prounced as O and R's aren't trilled.
Not really a problem imo as it would be strange for the voice actors to suddenly change accent when they're saying a specific word or name.
here's a video for proper pronunciations of names featured in GoW ruclips.net/video/PwOt9Cna8vI/видео.html
THANK YOU for making all these videos Hrafna! You're amazing!! The content you have is interesting and original. Can't wait for more of your videos! Stay safe!
Hrafna, u did a very good thing today, u motivated me to learn Icelandic. Many thanks for it!!
Ok, im french, the icelandic accent is so sexy 😍😂 this 'r' sound is impossible for us to prononce
I agree with you too the way she pronounces Thor is so sexy, I'm French too and I must say it is extremely hard to say the Icelandic r sound.
Dans quel mot tu trouves que le R est difficile a prononcer ?
Personally for me it is do-able
It's impossible for us English to say too, rolling Rs is something I just can't do, especially at the front of my mouth.
Thank you for your videos...... I've been wanting to learn how pronounce them properly....
This is awesome! I truly appreciate your videos on how to properly pronounce the words .. Thank You
Loved this video, so cool. Makes me want to learn Icelandic.
God of War didn’t have to do me like this...
BAHAHAH this my now my favorite comment 😂
I want to hear her pronounce "Stormbreaker" with strong rolling "r"s... 😅✌
Ya but it wouldn’t make any sense because there’s no existence of Stormbreaker in Norse Mythology
@@HTCS10 i want to hear here say ruffles have ridges
@@jimmyju76 sure bro just make sure ur r rolling fetish under control
I'm loving these videos, thanks for educating me!
Been reading the Poetic Edda. To know and hear the correct pronunciation is so awesome! Thank you
I would love to hear your thoughts about the netflix series, Ragnarok
I watched Ragnarok, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Would definitely recommend, and anxiously waiting a new season.
I'd like to hear her thoughts on the show vikings.
I haven't seen it, but I wildely guess that the pronunciations are right? Because I guess they are talking Norwegian?
Ragnarok is an amazing show
I really like these "how to pronounce" videos. Maybe one day I'll even visit Iceland!
I can recommend it, it's beautiful. When I was there they had a two week 'heatwave', meaning the temperature was above 20 degrees C every day for two weeks 🤣. Prepare for all kinds of weather when you go!
I respect the fact you are sharing your ancestorial knowledge, through these videos!
I love this video so much, what a thrill it is to hear these names pronounced correctly. Thanks to the creator of the video, don’t be shy about sharing your amazing culture!
You sound so much like Björk when speaking english, and i love it.
Thank you for this, Hrafna. Having grown up with the English language, some of these names are difficult, ha! I've had some exposure to foreign languages which do have the rolling R, so names like Baldur and þór aren't too hard to pronounce, but when we get to names where multiple rolling R's are close together, like Valkyrjur, it gets much tougher to have my tongue in the right place fast enough to have the end of the word 'sound nice.' Still, excellent to practice. Thanks again!
Cool video! Always good to get pronunciation right!
I don't know how it is that I lose my way from watching you more regularly! It's always great to see your content and I hope it's not *so* long before we see a part three... but I wouldn't get onto the third part straight away. (Maybe when this video is at a million views?) Thank you, Hrafna!
You should talk to Gabriel Poliglota, like the name suggests he's a polyglot (a Brazilian one) and he's trying to learn Icelandic, you should give him some classes, he has a RUclips channel too

I love the pronuntiation! Here is Spain we also say the "R" strong in some words : D
The "rolling R" is used in Iceland, Norway, northern Sweden and in Finland.
@@wardeni9603 Tis been part of Old English and still used in Northern England but it was not from the Norse, it was from the Angles and Saxons from Modern day Germany.
That's because you're Arabic though. :P
@@bashkillszombies the rolled r came from the visigods
Not so much time ago the "rollende R" was common in German language too. Luckily my mom thought me the "rollende R" but it became rare in German language and it happens, that people thought I'm from an Eastern European country xD
Wow so interesting video love seeing it ✊😊 you do really great ✊
Really interesting and well explained. Many thanks.
Your 'r' sounds like a purring kitten
Wtf
@@HTCS10 neeeiiii ekki vera skítsama gagnvart henni!!!!! D:

Do Jormungadr and all different worlds of yggdrasil next pls
Hi, i just saw some of your videos because I love Norse mythology and I want to learn more about it, you teach me some things, so thank you, greetings from Mexico
Wonderful channel! Thank you for sharing your culture with the world!!!
I'm really impressed that in Brazil we pronounce many of the names correctly. Our regular accent and way of using R's is very similar. Except for the F's. These are waaaay too different for us.
Ela tem de conversar com o Gabriel Poliglota, ele tá tentando aprender islandês e ela não sabe nada de português, ia dar um vídeo show
Principalmente no Paraná.Nós trememos os R direto,e não modificamos tanto o som das vogais.
E um pouco nos "shhh, chhh, x"
I think this is why Portuguese, Spanish and South Asian languages are considered as phonetic languages, whereas English is not for some people
Love these tutorials! Could you expand a little and include places and objects related to the gods and goddesses? For example, how do you pronounce Freyr's ship, Skíðblaðnir? Full confession here, I am struggling with the rolled R's! I do better with Spanish R's, which are more staccato when rolled, while Icelandic R's are more breathy, giving them an ethereal quality.
Thanks for doing videos such as this, they really help a lot. 😁
You too Hrafna thanks for sharing your made amazing video. I joyful joyful watching your video please stay safe and healthy.
Why does Forseti sometimes sound like... an italian name....
"Ah, Forseti, my deerest brother! The Don is weiting in there for you alone..." ^^
Wow. Now I can't ignore it...
here in my city in Washington USA we have streets called Thor and Freya
thanx again, and please do a part 3. I must say bands like Amon Amarth and Brothers of Metal clued me in on the pronounciation of some of these names as well..
Eeee I love this! ! I have a Nordic Goddesses soap line out now, and the males are coming in March-April. This helps with the pronunciation and I appreciate this so much!! I know the stories very well, and love them so much
I notice sometimes she either rolls her R's when pronouncing the R or just letting air pass instead or rolling 8:53. in Wales we make that same sound when 2 L's are next to each other. we also can heavily roll our R's
The Welsh ll is much softer, but it is a similar sound.
@@SombreRavenAye! Although I think it depends on the person, my Welsh teacher used to spit quite a bit because she really went for it when pronouncing Ll hahaha
I absolutely loved this, please pronounce "Eir" goddess of healing. She definitely needs some love!
@Vidar Gartz it's definitely not literal as there's several ways to pronounce it?
Old Norse: /ɛir/
Modern Islandic: /eiːr/
So 'ay' + trilled r
Great video, thanks!
You should do part three. Learning many stuff here. Do it please.
I love Iceland so much (it's mythology, nature, language etc). I'm currently playing God of War 4 and I'm over the moon:)
More Icelandic language fun! 👏👏 👏 😃
Very interesting and educational video! I watched both part 1 and part 2 of this! When this pandemic blows over, I would love to visit your country.
A 3rd video would be great!
I'd like to know what Angrboða and Sigyn, the wives of Loki, sound like! :D
I'm a mix of Norwegian and Italian. My first surname is Kjørstad and I never understood how to pronounce it ._.
FacchiniBR its bit of a tricky one, but it’s pronounced something like SHee-Urr-stad or Kee-Urr-Stad. With the rolled R’s. Not as heavy as Icelandic
as a Finn I'd say it's likely pronounced "sh-œr-stad"
FacchiniBR why don’t you ask your norwegian parent? Btw don’t listen to the finn, they speak a whole other language. Your name is difficult because it has two different sounds of shh.
Just put it into google translate Norweigan - English and press the audio button, that is pretty much how you pronounce it.
Thats pronounced differently depending on which dialect you read it with.
Read with californian dialect it sounds like "Tchure-stah" in most of Norway.
Glückwunsch zu 200k hrafna!
Deine Videos sind interessant und Island ist ein sehr schönes Land!
Love these Videos! Keep breaking down the Marvel movies
I grew up in a village here in Sweden named after Nanna.
What's the name of the village
Oh what's the name
This video would have been so beneficial when I was taking that Norse mythology course back at UCLA😂
Fight, fight, fight!! Was your class in Royce Hall? Or maybe Haines?
Jamarcus Russell hahahahaha! Haines! Precisely! I only had my german classes in Royce😁
@@yassi8814 awesome! I was an English major so I had a lot of classes in Royce, Haines, Public Affairs/Luskin and others. Always happy to greet a fellow Bruin!😁😁
Jamarcus Russell
Thank you very much for your kindness! I got my degree from UCLA in 2018! I can’t believe that was almost 2 years ago😮 I majored in linguistics! I wish you success!
Awesome vid. I love everything Norse.. hope you are safe too...
The place you are running, looks amazing!!
nice video!!
make part 3 please.
when you making it, please include skadi and hraesvelgr.
I was amazed how beautiful Iceland is when I made a trip there with my friends couple of years ago. Honestly, it is probably the only place in the world I could live in if I had a choice. Of course I'm going back as soon as I can ! Do you know of any books or references that will help me with learning Icelandic? Keep it up with giving us more of that langauge of love xD
Michał Raszczyk You might want to check out the language app called Drops, it offers Icelandic lessons and it’s free! Or you can upgrade and pay for more extensive lessons. I like it!
Please do not refers to Fenrir as a horrific beast. He's actually very kind and was just betrayed by the people he loved most
Thank you so much! I would very much love to see a part three, if you don't mind!
I love your videos!!💕 I learn a lot with them, since I love Norse mythology!♥✨ Thxu👣
Concur with you, Hrafna (trying to roll my 'R'), the names sound much cooler in modern Icelandic.
Very interesting to see how large a divergence there is between how Norwegians and Icelandic people pronounce the same gods.
There is actually a study that says that how you pronounce the gods and stuff is more right in the Scandinavian languages than Icelandic
Part 3 is a good idea, do it!
Love it. Thank you for the class. Cheers from Uruguay.
I speak in Spanish so I know how to roll my tongue 😂 I would love to learn Icelandic and visit your beautiful country! Huge kiss from Uruguay 🇺🇾❤️
Imagine being able to talk the languages of gods
Yeah, that's called being Greek. Lol. Different set of Gods, though. :-)
The Language of the Gods only exists in 'written' form, and it's logographic. No one can speak it.
*tosses the Kalevala behind her shoulder* Not going to bother with that, our gods speak like silly poetry.
Your video made me want to learn Icelandic. And I think it also sounds super good.
Listening to you speak is like good music in my ears and brain 💕
Cory Barlog need to see this
English and French: those Rs are so hard :/
Spaniard: *R* isas
That's what I was thinking 😂😂
Jajajajajajajaaaaaaaaaaaa sabemos marcar muy fuerte la R rrrrrrrrrrrr
Hahahahahaha you're RRRRRRRRight
Been watchin for like months now so I think it's time to subscribe
THANK YOU SO MUCH I LOVE THESE
VIDEOS I am so in love with Scandinavian culture and history, and Icelandic is particularly fascinating to me because it is the closest to old Norse out of all of the Scandinavian languages. This made me unbelievably happy. PLEASE continue to do these. And I don’t know how much you know about the symbol Vegvisir, but could you do a video about that? I would be eternally grateful 💙💙💙I love your channel
great video, but it's very curious to me (I from Colombia and of course speak spanish) that the way of reading many letters (consonants or vowels) are very very similar in the old norse languaje and in the modern spanish, an example of this it´s the next english quote "the storm calms down, the mind it flies" in the spanish way to read and pronounce it´s something like this "de estorm kalms daun, de maind it flais" but in this old norse (very similar to icelandic) quote "Stormen stilnar, hugen fer" the spanish way to pronounce it´s: "estormen estilnar, huguen fer" it´s almost identichal, and many quotes like "Lengten lokkar, hugen dreg" in spanish it´s the same to read and to pronounce, the same with "Rir meg fri med raske bein" it´s almost the same reading in spanish or the spanish pronunciation, in english it would be somenthing like "Rides me free with rash feet" the pronunciation in spanish would be like" raids mi frii wid rash fit" it changes a lot.
I say this because one thing that makes icelandic so hard to learn it's because it has it´s roots in the old norse, and the old norse comes from the germanic languajes but this nordic people got influenced by the languajes of the inhabitans of the indigenous circumpolar peoples (east of siberia, greenland, alaska and canadá (eskimo or inuit)) at a unidentified age at this moment; some historicians say that people from the polar ural mountains migrated to north and eastern europe (the magyars) and at this moment the only country that speaks magyar it´s hungary, it seems to exist a reminiscence in the icelandic, finnish and filipine language. that makes the old norse similar and diferent at the same time from the germanic languajes, but technically it has nothing to do with the spanish.
if someone can help to explain this, I´ll be very thankfull
saludos
I have been reading norse mithology sikce I was 11. I'm 30 now, so I had this book for 20 years now. Just realized that. Still love it. The book I have is a spanish translation ( I'm from Argentina) and I would love to know how the other regions are pronounced like Niffleheim or Muspelheim. The Ygdrassil tree. Or Hela and Nidhogge wich says are Loki's offsprings like Fenrir. Also the goddesses of destiny Urd, Verdandi and Skuld. Just leaving suggestions. I'll suscribe and keep watching your videos. Stay safe.
I just came here after watching your first part in this series (and leaving a few comments) and I just want to go on record saying thank you for acknowledging that Icelandic and Old Norse are not the same language. I took issue with a few of your historical claims in the first video and am glad to see that your due diligence and research for the continuation of this video series are more visible to viewers this time around. Keep it up :)
Loved this video! Beautiful language, awesome culture!
