Greetings James,

>I've got a question regarding pronunciation of ON. How does one pronounce
>'v' and 'ö'? Is the 'ö' like in German? And how do I say all this in ON?

You can pronounce 'v' as an English 'v' or as an English 'w'.
The 'ö' is pronounced alike in German and Icelandic. It was not
used in the Old Icelandic period - we use it in this course to
represent a hooked o, pronounced not unlike the vowel in 'cause'
- but short rather than long.

Try Óskar's article for more detail:

In Old Norse 'all this' is 'allt þetta' ;)

Regards,
Haukur
