Dear Icelandic community,
With thousands of new words added to worldwide dictionaries every year and many others becoming obsolete, dictionaries seem to be a living and breathing thing. Some words are timeless, invented centuries ago, and still used today. While others come and go, much like fashion trends.
In this discussion, I’d love to hear what words, if any, in Icelandic have a special meaning to you. Maybe it’s the first word you learned in Icelandic, or perhaps a special someone said this word to you some time. In the comment section below, I invite you to share your favorite word in Icelandic and the story about what that word means to you.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
