Sure, no problem :) we'll try to use the format most people prefer, or
probably multiple formats.

Of course, the spirit behind a greeting is what matters most; so your
greeting is well received even though it's incorrect :)
"Heilsa", however, never was and never has been a traditional
greeting in any Nordic language, except perhaps in pseudo-ON among
20th century American Pagans. Their using it doesn't bother me, and I
don't want to start an anti heilsa-crusade here; but I'd also (if
Haukur doesn't disagree) rather not have this a "heilsa" type of ON
course. Don't worry Wassail, you're not being flamed in any way, I
just want to use this opportunity now that the course is getting
started.
So, from now on, no more "heilsa" here :) The basic way to greet
someone in ON is to say "heill," to a man or "heil," to a woman. In
Modern Icelandic we'd say either "sæll/sæl" or (more slangish)
"blessa'r/blessuð" (ok, we also say "hæ" quite a lot).
