Not terribly. It's been a while since I did Old
Icelandic...
It has got the same four cases the other Gmc
languages have (NGDA), the same basic tenses
(past/nonpast) and verbal system as I recall
(different aux. vbs to take care of things
similar to ours). Like other Scandinavian
languages, it postposes the article.
It's phonology is interesting and if I had Gordon
to hand, I could describe it better.
Padraic.
