ð is pronounced eth
þ is pronounced thorn
Our country is named Ísland and has nothing to do with Ice
It is more a land of the Isis or Ásar
See asatru.is for details of the gods Óðinn, Þór and a lot more
That is Odinn, Thor etc
Sort of similar to the greek gods
===============================
the schools in The Neth are not what they were: I remember all those names
from
primary and secondary school, including their equivalents in Gothic myths
and
where they stood for (as a kid I loved the name Freya, e.g.; we also
learned
writing the Gothic hand-script - full of "steeples" up and down)
