Icelandic can be learned in its original form as it is still spoken that way. Texts from the 12th century and before can be understood clearly even now.

Icelandic is perhaps the hardest of the Scandinavian languages but one thing is for sure. Once you learn Icelandic, every other Scandinavian language will seem like a piece of cake to you!
Learning Icelandic will allow you to explore the beautiful Greenlands of Iceland in all their glory and originality.
Origins:
Nordic languages are a subgroup of Germanic languages. Iceland was established as a settlement in A.D. 870-930 with people coming from Norway, Sweden, and the British Isles. Icelandic is a Nordic language that means it is an Indo-European descendant of the North Germanic languages. Icelandic is the official language of Iceland and is closely linked to Norwegian with slight differences that can be explained by the Celtic influence on the culture and literature found in Medieval Iceland.
