Heill Keþ!
I agree with you on this.
speaking exercises would be conjoined.


máli means to speak a language
máli við e-n, to speak to
mælast fyrir, to speak

Meirr would be comparative while vel would be more
Messed up on vel which means well, it was from memory.

Meir um málæfingar

---------------------
I would prefer tala

tala means to talk, to speak.
talaðr, spoken, speaking, talaðr vel, a good speaker.

siðan töluðu þeir leyniliga ráðagörð sina
after that they talked over their plans by themselves.


Meir um töluðræfingar

Is there an umlaut here æ as in u.
