    Here I'm sitting, muching on the heavenly goodies you sent to me💖😋 thank you again😍
    Ís means ice, so Ísland=Iceland.
    Jarðarber are strawberries, hindber are raspberries. The blue fronted kókómjólk is with less sugar. Stjörnupopp=star popcorn. I will keep on as I watch, I was too eager to send you the boxes to explain everything😂🤣

      I think that goes back to the days when there were "malt shops". Wendy's Frosties are like malted milkshakes. A blast from the past! (Not that I was alive during the days of malt shops). 😉

    Yes Ísland is the Icelandic name for Iceland but it doesn't annoy us that others call it Iceland, we also have Icelandic names for other countries :) btw Britain in Icelandic is Bretland

      I just commented that In Farsi aka Persian we pronounce Iceland as Eesland and we write it ایسلند . So I guess we have a very accurate pronunciation of it !!

  • @kokoshneta

    The Icelandic name _Ísland_ has the same meaning as the English name: _ís_ is ‘ice’ and _land_ is ‘country, land’. So the English name is technically a calque.
    The English word that happens to be spelt _island_ in English, on the other hand, has nothing to do with ice or Iceland - the s in that word has never been pronounced and wasn’t there at all historically. It used to be written _iland_ or _yland_ in Middle English, and in Old English it was _īeg̍land._ That’s a compound of _īeg_ (which meant ‘island’ by itself originally) and _land,_ so it’s really ‘island-land’.
    The reason it got an s eventually is that it looks so similar to _isle._ The resemblance is coincidental, though - _isle_ was borrowed from French (written _île_ in Modern French) and comes from Latin _insula._
    So yeah, _isle, island, Ísland_ and _Iceland_ are a bit confusing, but it all fits together somehow.

    2:06 It's a different language. Look at like this. Germany in German is Deutschland, but no one who doesn't speak German calls it that. The Philippines in Tagalog is Ang Pilipinas, but no one who doesn't speak Tagalog would call it that. If you don't speak the language, you aren't expected to say the name of the country in their native language.
    4:48 Wendy's Frosty! That means it's probably malted milk, because Wendy's Frosty's are frozen malted milk
