"by sheer persistence and a constant playful spirit"

Pretty good advice for any challenging task.

Also, how cool is it that irish gaelic of all languages would get such a pretty website? I can easily imagine these becoming a series of sites, like the X pod 101 series. I would absolutely pay $15 a month for bitesizeicelandic.



Haha I would pay for that, too. I'm fighting my way through Icelandic (post it notes, reading, tweeting occasionally) and any help is always welcome. If you want to do some "mail exchange in Icelandic" to practice with someone else, please drop me an email!


Alas, I'm not really studying Icelandic at the moment--too busy learning Mandarin :)

I went there on vacation last spring and fell completely in love with the language (and the landscape!!), so I would definitely start playing with it again if I could find some fun, easy resources...


I also felt in love with the country, but so far no "fun and easy resources". Also, it is a heck hard language, so far it is the hardest grammar I've found (although looks like gaelic grammar is hard, too), the declension rules are nightmarish.


Heh heh, perhaps Rubén can help me build that.


It would be awesome if I made to that level!!
