🇳🇴 Glataður titill 🇳🇴 hello Iceland
Just felt like saying hello from Norway. In case you had forgotten us, you runaway brothers. :p When are you coming home? We don't have evil kings any longer, and all the adhd kids left in the Viking times, so we're calm and don't bite anymore. We're really boring, tbh. We need you. I am also hoping you can teach us old Norse again, as the damn Danes corrupted our language. Have you ever thought of the fact that the anglosaxons were Danes who fought Danish vikings and Normans, who were also Danish vikings, so the whole of the British history revolves around Danes fighting Danes. Makes sense, of course. Anyway I'm sure you can learn old Norse faster than we can. So we need you for real. Well.. maybe I should learn Faroese first? I can actually understand Faroese for the most part! I had no clue it is that similar to Norwegian western dialects. It seems like a good step before I learn Norse, no? And very useful for traveling. At least if traveling goes to the Faroe Islands, and that is the direction Norwegians travel, it seems. Do we like the Faroe Islands, btw?
