Kvedjur til rialtofolksins fra brynhildi kormaks dottur.
Good gentles, one of the requests I get most often has to do with good texts
for the selfteaching of (modern) Icelandic--that language being as close as we
can come nowadays to what Viking Age types would have spoken.  Up till now I
have only been able to point them to the Glendinning book or lend out my Jon
Fridjonsson. However, today's mail brings this good news (in the Frettabref of
the Stofnun Sigurdar Nordals): "The Icelandic Correspondence College offers a
beginners' Icelandic course for foreigners.  'Icelandic for Beginners' is a
practical guide to the language for those who want to study on their own.  For
further information write to: The Icelandic Correspondence College, P. O. Box
5144, 125 Reykjavik."  No details about costs or whether tapes come with it,
but I imagine they would fill you in if you should choose to write.
Gjorid thid svo vel!  Til hamingju!
