It was 5 days ago Since then I've learnt my first Faroese word: vegur 🇬🇧 way 🇩🇪 Weg 🇳🇱 weg 🇩🇰 vej 🇸🇪 väg 🇳🇴 (Bokmål) vei 🇳🇴 (Nynorsk) veg 🇮🇸 vegur 🇫🇴 vegur #Etymology #NordicLanguages #GermanicRoots Cognates are super helpful to remember meaning So I have added Faroese to my list... But after Icelandic!

If it is anything like Icelandic - I can speak passable Swedish, but it was no use at all in Iceland.

I am totally focussed on reading-understanding Not to speak & even listen From what I've gathered, Icelandic has purposefully expelled "impure" ungermanic words, and purposefully kept the influence of Old-Norse But for most of the inter-germanic stem/word I learn, the icelandic ones make sense

This is only the top-top-top ranks of my file My file (I have several of them indeed) is much larger

Maybe there are mistakes I correct them all along my learning
