Icelandic Buff; The Fun Words For Fun People! Are you a huge Iceland buff just like us? Does the incredibly beautiful landscape and starry, northern lights call out to you in a mystic lullaby? Do you also have a piggy bag stuffed away in the corner of your closet where you are saving all the fast food money in hopes that someday you will backpack through the lush vastness of Iceland? NordicTrans is there, immersed in translate Icelandic to English passion, right with you!
But in the meanwhile, let’s live our passion for all things Iceland with our beloved friends. We have made a post just for our friends that Here's a list of English words that were adopted from the Icelandic language and we all use them every day. We share because we want you to have as much of a nerd euphoria as we did about Iceland’s legacy that we enjoy every day! SO, here is our list; Geyser; isn’t it obvious! The world where the word geyser comes from is the world where the most beautiful and breathtaking ‘Geysir’ exist. That differently spelled ‘Geysir’ is of course Icelandic! Ransack; ransack is an Icelandic derivative, it comes from the word ‘rannsaka’ that means to search for a house. The word makes sense as ransack is usually associated with searching within a house!
