And yes, I've tried to describe Irish as "they ignore half the letters and mispronounce the rest" :lol: but I'm kinda getting the hang of it. Though when I'm supposed to add h's and b's and whatnot before or after letters is still just a huge mystery no matter how many times I read the rules!

I have heard that Icelandic is nearly unchanged from Old Norse, which I find very cool. I also play in a medieval reenactment group and so find learning anything medieval to be very fascinating! I would *love* to visit Iceland, as well as Scandinavia in general. I'm not sure where in Sweden my great grandparents came from but I'd love to see it!
I had noticed that the Swedish in some of the songs didn't align exactly with what I was learning, but then neither does a lot of English music so, eh. Glad you liked the sound!
