Another Wonky Character for you Kiya - I am Asatru personally -
Here is ð it is called Eth - and the þ is called thorn
Broadly speaking the ð is the "hard th" as in these them those - in English
and the þ is the "soft th" as in think - thin etc

Mine's late! I've been kinda clammed up here and just reading whatever
gets posted (and therefore emailed to me). Normally I'm not so quiet
but I've been massively busy since I joined. My name is Ashley, better
known as Ash or Kiya to my friends, and the reason I want to learn
Norse is because of my religion (a mishmash of Wicca and Asatru, oh
yes I'm one of those). I printed up the lessons and am reading all the
stories I can get my hands on when I actually have time and so far I
love it. ^_^
Oh yeah, and if someone could tell me how some of the wonky characters
you encounter in Norse and other languages like it are pronounced (I
know the one that looks like a P but sounds like 'th' but the others
are fairly mysterious), I would be very very grateful.
Thanks!,
Ash / Kiya
