Á á í á á á Á?

This is actually a full sentence in Icelandic where each letter is a separate word.
It translates as: should the sheep in the river rest on the farm named Á?
á makes a sound like ou in sound

What a profound set of Alphabets and words you have then.. drinking
Icelandic alphabet:

A Á B D Ð E É F G H I Í J K L M N O Ó P R S T U Ú V X Y Ý Þ Æ Ö

Also we have combination of two letters standing together as one letter,
AU EY
Has it occurred to anyone to improve the Icelandic language where different words have different sounds or does Religion play a roll in it just like Arabic which is not permitted to be changed because it is the language of the Koran.
Icelandic is a holy language in a way.
Not because of religion but because it has been the same for over 1000 yrs, and is basically the root of skandinavian languages and partly english
Can I call you "Precious Stone" from now on? giggle
