Icelandic-English/English-Icelandic Practical Dictionary Taschenbuch von Helga Hilmisdottir Spezial

-Icelandic is a North-Germanic language related to Norwegian, Danish, and Swedish. Due in large part to Iceland’s isolation and remote location, the language has not experienced many linguistic changes and classic works from the Middle Ages can be read today with little difficulty. This dictionary features over 18,000 word-to-word entries and guides to the Icelandic alphabet and pronunciation, as well as a usage guide which outlines the parts of speech and gender cases (male, female, neuter).— Über den Autor
