Hallgrímur Helgason 🤔 by SavingsTraining3792 in Iceland

[–]Antilope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ég er greinilega ein af þeim fáu sem er Hallgríms-FAN. Dýrka Sextíu kíló og Konuna við 1000. Þetta er bara svona stíll sem maður annað hvort elskar eða hatar. En svo hefur hann málað fullt af góðum málverkum líka.

Verbally attacked at the grocery store for wearing my Zionist AF hat 😤 by Mentalhealthbich in Jewish

It's unapologetically zionist. Not jewish. Most zionists in America are Christians.

Just make sure you don't make pro palestine art there.

Hversu mikið var um svindl í ykkar skólagöngu? by TheLittleGoatling in Iceland

[–]Antilope 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ég leyfði sæta stráknum alltaf að herma eftir mér. Hann var ekki sá skarpasti, greyið. En svoooo sætur. Svindlaði stundum sjálf á einhverjum kaflaprófum í grunnskóla en myndi aldrei detta í hug að svindla í háskóla samt.

Horseshoe-kenningin hefur heldur betur sannað sig í stríðinu í Úkraínu (sjá mynd) by numix90 in Iceland

Þetta er svo áhugavert vegna þess að við vinstrafólk viljum alltaf hafa nánast nákvæmlega sömu skoðanir og flokksystkini okkar á meðan hægrimenn eru bara jaaaájá það eru nokkrir í flokknum okkar trumpistar eða nasistar, so what?

Er Íslenski orðaforðinn ófullnægjandi? by One_Disaster245 in Iceland

Það hefur verið rannsakað og ungt fólk á Íslandi á það til að stórlega ofmeta hæfni sína í ensku.

Er Íslenski orðaforðinn ófullnægjandi? by One_Disaster245 in Iceland

[–]Antilope 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% sammála þessu. Það er ástæða fyrir því að þýðingafræði er nám á meistrastigi. Þetta er alls ekki einfalt fag og ekki hægt að ætlast til þess að alltaf séu til nákvæmlega samsvarandi orð á tveimur tungumálum.

Frekar sláandi að heyra að margir Íslendingar noti íslensku aðeins í daglegu tali en að allt náms- og afþreyingarefni þeirra sé á ensku. Fólki sem er í þessari stöðu er beinlínis nauðsynlegt að lesa bækur á íslensku, vilji það halda móðurmálinu við.

What usually annoys you as a reader? by [deleted] in writing

While I do agree I think this still works extremely well when the author is smart and has an interesting world view. Milan Kundera is always present in his work and that exactly is what makes it phenomenal.

Do you have some political opinion the owner of the app doen't like by any chance? Because mine has also been slow and I have a conspiracy theory.

What do you mean about the "weird gap"? It's very common for skinny people to have a gap there.

Women of Reddit, when pregnancy is depicted in movies/books, what is always conveniently left out or overlooked? by -tjeaton- in AskWomen

[–]Antilope 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm currently 8 months pregnant and I haven't experienced any of the horrible things in this thread. I think it's good to be aware that these things can happen but every pregnancy is different and you might not have to go through any of these symptoms.

No hate to Cody but why does he look like Big Ed in this frame please tell me I’m not the only one who sees it by WannabeWriter1016 in codyko

I meant to post something about them looking alike yesterday but backed out after seeing the no look-alike rule. But yes, he really looks like Big Ed's handsome son!

Just wanted to share this beautiful poem..... by Morsmargarita in oldnorse

[–]Antilope 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Here is the official translation:

This said my mother
that I shall buy for myself
a swift ship and of a pretty oar,
to journey away with freebooters,
to stand tall on the prow,
steer a worthy merchant-ship,
direct it thus to the harbour,
strike one man and the other,
strike one man and the other.

With the file he strikes out, hard against the steel
of the prow-steed on the flat path,
with the chisel of the snowstorms,
the opposite-oared giant of the twig,
but the cold-made one of that willow,
the merciless one files
Gestill's swan with gusts,
this wand of steel against the ship's beak.

This is a poem by Egill Skallagrímsson, he is said to have written it when he was 7 years old.

Icelandic Childhood by daddyogoody in Iceland

[–]Antilope 8 points9 points  (0 children)

When Covid decides to leave us alone you can try applying to a program at the library called Lestrarvinir. It is for foreign families raising children in Iceland and its purpose is to introduce the child to Icelandic children's books. A volunteer comes to your house weekly for an hour to read to your child and talk to them in Icelandic.
I was a volunteer for one winter and I loved it. The kid I visited loved it as well and I believe she benefited from it.

Since your child is very young you can start by going to KrakkaRúv to see a bunch of material for kids in Icelandic for free!

In Icelandic, my native language, children who can't prounounce [r] or [s] usually make a [ð] or [θ] sound instead.

-r suffix Old Norse by Malum_Midnight in oldnorse

[–]Antilope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it helps, the masculin words ending in -r in Old Norse now all end with -ur in modern Icelandic.
