does every children's show get translated into so many different languages?

of course Icelandic is my favorite because the show is from Iceland and I have an interest in it. But I do agree the French didn't sound too good.

I consider it a good thing that many children shows get translated, but when it comes to the French version, I think the studio did a severe mistake, because the voice sounds so pitched.

You know I am the only one permitted to make lazytown threads around here don't you? ;)

But they've translated it into a buttload of languages. I even believe the show airs in Japan (pink-haired girl- instant popularity there! :D), but as I've seen no clips of the show in Japanese, I think it may only be subtitled there.

Do you or are you learning Icelandic or are you only interested in the country or lazytown otherwise? I am trying to learn Icelandic and think it'd be cool to find someone to help or help eachother with.

Just a random fact, Icelandic is the language closest to the ones the vikings spoke :wink:

Me too, but I'm not very good. Ég tala ekki mjög góða íslensku. :D
Yesterday evening I watched Freaky Friday with Icelandic subtitles on, so I'm now sorted if I should ever need to say "Good luck getting dressed without a door!" to Björk...

Ætlarðu æfa með mér? Við getum skrifum á íslensku, kannski?

Firstly, that slow video is the funniest thing I've seen for ages (do I not get out enough?!?)

Secondly:

Að sjálfsögðu. Frábært. :D
It sounds as though you're a lot better than I am - I hope you don't mind a slightly one-sided conversation! In my defense I've been neglecting Icelandic lately in favour of my Swedish lessons, for some unfathomable reason...

I thought að ætla was to plan to do something. Would viltu be better, or would that be wrong?

May I ask a question about multiple-verb constructions in what you just wrote? In the first sentence, "Ætlarðu æfa með mér?", the second verb æfa was infinitive. In your second sentence, "Við getum skrifum á íslensku, kannski?", the second verb skrifum is not in its infinitive form. Is this because one was a question (therefore the first verb was inverted with the pronoun)?
I'm not deliberately trying to nitpick; like I said, I'm not as far ahead as you, so I'm playing catch-up! :D

I am not sure... I thought að ætla would be better because I was asking "will you" which is kind of like are you going to, I am unsure of what the construction of it is as well, Viltðu? (but that does not show up in my íslenska spellchecker). ?

Nei, I am pretty sure I made the mistake and it is supposed to be skrifa. Þú sérð, ég þarf að æfa! :oops: I'll message you, I think this is a thread hijack.
