Icelandic lesson 1

I’ve had my first Icelandic class. We are starting by reviewing the things covered in course 1. I seem to be about in the middle of the class, in terms of grasp of Icelandic which is perfect. My classmates are from Belgium, the Congo, Phillipines, Poland, Haiti and America. It’s a small class which is nice. It’s also close enough to bike to, which makes me very happy.

The weather cooperated today; it was windy but no precipitation.

Your Icelandic phrase for today is: Ég er bruðaleikari frá Bandarikjunum.

I am a puppeteer from America.

    Is there any way to increase the volume on this lesson? I can bareley make out the individual sounds comprising your dulcet tones. I want to learn this, so when you return to our shores I can prepare a lovely wok of spicy vegetarian rice noodles (with plenty of ginger and garlic), and then lie to you about my profession in an alien tongue.

    Just for you, -e-, I have rerecorded it. See what good care I take of my lying friends?

    I have to say, that I’m really enjoying having the audio option now.
