Thank you John. High Icelandic is an experiment on how far one can go
in eliminating loan-words without severely impoverishing the language.
I think I have succeeded for a 80%. Still there's much left to be
corrected and I hope I can solidify this language model in relatively
short notice, maybe before the end of this year. If you have ideas
about improvements of the vocabulary, please let me know, because no
language is without flaws. The only thing we can do is reduce their
number.
