My blog posts have been sparse lately, mostly because I&#8217;ve been spending a lot of time on the grammar web site I put together and announced a few weeks ago. Thanks to all who sent me feedback, I&#8217;ve made a lot of improvements that will hopefully make the site even more useful to Icelandic learners. If you haven&#8217;t checked it out recently, here are the biggest changes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>All of the flashcards are now fill-in-the-blank, and allow you to use just the keyboard to check your answer, show the answer, of fetch a new word.<\/li>\n<li>There is the option to use the smaller beginner database of words, or the expanded database of almost the entire DMII.<\/li>\n<li>You can search for an Icelandic word, and it will offer suggestions as you type for a fill-in-the-blank table.<\/li>\n<li>A page for random verbs that allows you to filter based on strong\/weak, 4 classes of verbs, or even specific vowel shifts.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t see the new stuff, try clearing your browser cache &#8211; I had some issues with caching early on that should be fixed now.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/islenzka.is\" target=\"_blank\">Icelandic Grammar Exercises &#8211; http:\/\/islenzka.is<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Information in Icelandic:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.menntamalaraduneyti.is\/menningarmal\/dit\/\" target=\"_blank\">Dagur \u00edslenskrar tungu<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/jonashallgrimsson.is\/\" target=\"_blank\">J\u00f3nas Hallgr\u00edmsson<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And a happy Icelandic Language Day (and happy birthday J\u00f3nas Hallgr\u00edmsson) to the native speakers of this fascinating language, as&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5025,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[9],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/islenzka.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5022"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/islenzka.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/islenzka.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/islenzka.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/islenzka.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5022"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/islenzka.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5022\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5042,"href":"https:\/\/islenzka.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5022\/revisions\/5042"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/islenzka.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5025"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/islenzka.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5022"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/islenzka.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5022"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/islenzka.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5022"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
