OK, good. :thumbup:

:eek:

En žaš = En dag = A day?
Ekki = Ikke = Not?
Noršurlöndinn = Nordmann/nordlending = Norwegian?
Fysta sętinu nęstu įrin = Fųrste plass neste år = First place next year?

Icelandic is all Greek to me. That is the most I can make out of it, if it even is correct. We actually talked about old Norwegian, which is very similar to Icelandic, at school today. :)

Do you know Norwegian or someone that does?
