Thanks With the pressure of such expectation, I would have to!

I've actually always wondered what norwegian and perhaps other scandinavian languages would sound like if I came from an english speaking country like England. For example, would I think it sounded more similar to japanese than dutch?

Icelandish to us is very old fashioned, ancient really as it's similar to the norse language of the vikings. It also seems perhaps a bit posh. They go to great lengths with keeping the language the way it is while in Norway, it's been allowed to evolve.
