I personally like Norwegian (we have over 600 words of Norse origin in the English language,) Dutch, and English.

German is interesting but I think it sounds quite harsh.


English sounds softer due to the Latin and Celtic inputs - in addition to 15,000 French words within the English vocabulary.

I like German and English. I speak english at a decent level. I can hold casual conversations about every day stuff. My vocabulary is lacking, but I think if I don't know something I could describe it well using other words. Also my pronunciation is not so good.
I used to study german at high school and I never got anywhere with it but I am planning to start it again and get a B2 exam.

How about ''old Norse'' Lily?


I might have chance to visit Iceland next summer (my parents are going there anyway).... I'm studying it now (just for fun).

So right now? My vote goes to Icelandic .
