Never be lost for words again...with this book of lost words. Have you ever wanted to wield the silver tongue of Loki, or to hammer home your point like a Thundergod? Old Norse is the language of legends and the stuff of sagas, the inspiration for Tolkien and Marvel, for award-winning manga and epic videogames. It is the language of cleverly crafted kennings, blood-curdling curses, and pithy retorts to RagnarOk. Old Norse for Modern Times gives you the perfect phrase for every contemporary situation-from memorable movie quotes ("e;We're going to need a bigger boat."e; Þurfa munu vEr skip strra) to battle-cries to yell on Discord ("e;Do I look to be in a gaming mood?"e; SYnisk þEr ek vera I skapi til leika?), from mead hall musings ("e;This drink, I like it! ANOTHER!"e; LIkar mEr drykkr þessi! ANNAN!) to tried-and-tested pickup lines ("e;Nice tattoo!"e; Fagrt er hUðflUrið"e;). With over 500 phrases inside (plus the chance to add your own!) it is the perfect guide for Vikings fans, whether they are re-enactors, role-players, or simply in love with Ragnar.
