[vegantraveller]

Thanks for the list of resources! Really useful!

Just wanted to ask if anyone has tried apprendre l'islandais and if so, how has it been?
Very tempted to try it out haha.

Hi humerusthings,

I'm a lucky owner of this coursebook, I purchased it as soon it was released. I haven't gone through it yet, because I'm going to take up Icelandic once my Swedish gets more solid, but it seems pretty good, it also comes with a CD and is packed with culture notes. It's completely different from the usual Assimil courses, it's halfway between their conversation guides and Teach Yourself/Colloquial coursebooks. I also bought "Colloquial Icelandic", so I think I will be using "Apprendre l'Islandais" as a complement to my main Colloquial textbook.

Label Icelandic is one of the best to learn Icelandic in general I found. It is a full course, sadly it is only for Android but when it comes to apps, it is excellent.http://www.labelicelandic.com

This is a really obvious one but I highly recommend Routledge's Icelandic: An Essential Grammar by Daisy L. Neijimann. Fills a major gap in the market.

I'm generally not a fan of text books, but I looked through Colloquial some years ago and it was not too bad.

Yes, it seems pretty good, but the price is high for what you get. I never got around to buying a copy.
