Icelandic Language

The Icelandic language is a North Germanic language spoken primarily in Iceland.

It is known for its conservative preservation of features from Old Norse, the medieval language of the Norsemen, which makes it the closest among modern languages to Old Norse.

Icelandic has a complex grammar with four cases for nouns, three genders, and verbs that are conjugated according to mood, tense, and voice.

It is also characterized by a rich vocabulary with a strong preference for creating new words from Old Icelandic roots rather than borrowing from other languages.
