Exactly, they should stop to create courses of imagined languages and create courses of real languages, like Icelandic. I'm Brazilian and it's really hard to learn Icelandic. We need a good Icelandic course, like Duolingo.

Thank you for being so generous with your time and teaching us some of your beautiful language! You are a charming host. Many of us have long loved Icelandic music, so there is a real hunger for learning even a few words!

As a Swede I think I could learn Icelandic quite fast. My only criticism, you are going too fast. Say the word loud (so we hear it), think the word twice silent (give us a chance to say it).
