Re: Hvert fer þú, fagra? / Pronunciation

Hello,

I'm Icelander and now that Þ-urs or Þ-orn begins Icelandic words.

Pronunciation of þ: like tth in Ma-tthew as common people utter it.
Iceland ú has long sound: same as ou in you.
þú and you rime.

fagr-a (faggrr-a) and hvert (quairrtt)

Hope this comes in handy.
