Iceland: Language: Icelandic
The language spoken in Iceland is Icelandic. It is an old Germanic language that has remained almost unchanged for about 1000 years. This language was spoken in most of Scandinavia about 1000 years ago. English speaking people find it difficult to understand because there have been many attempts to eradicate English words from this language and there are rather few similarities in the two languages although English and Icelandic are of the same origin. Iceland tourism will not be affected due to this because most of the people there know and speak English very well.
