I always understood English natives in English and French natives in French better than foreigners. In Icelandic it is the opposite way. Icelandic from a mouth of a foreigner is usually better comphrehensible for me than if I'm listening an Icelander speaking.

I'm learning Icelandic for four years now (not in Iceland) and I'm happy to say that I understood most of what you said. However, I wouldn't have been able to form those sentences myself (at least not without a lot of time). It's impressive how far you've come in only three months!

I am upper intermediate level in both Icelandic and Norse after a few months of focusing mostly on them, and I am also upper intermediate in German as I’ve been learning German on the side, and I know over 5.000 words in Icelandic at this point, so I am very close to an advanced level, especially when it comes to vocab, and I can understand a lot, like, I can understand most words in most sentences, and I started watching every video and movie with subs in Icelandic, as I can easily follow sentences now! I am actually learning new words in many other target languages as well, and usually prioritizing five of my target languages the most, while also learning words in fifteen of them regularly, and new words in the other target languages more occasionally, and even though I started learning a lot of words in Icelandic like seven months ago, I didn’t learn much for about two or three months, as I was working a lot on my playlists, but about three or four months ago, I started learning and revising lots of words in Icelandic almost every day, so I managed to learn over three or four thousand new words quite fast! I can understand how the Norse languages work very well at this point, so grammar is very easy for me, because I know the patterns so well, plus I tend to read the declensions and conjunctions for each word at least twice or thrice over a period of time, and I analyze the declensions and conjugations of a few different verbs and nouns and adjectives every day or every few days, and I can easily remember the whole thing after seeing it twice or thrice! The verbs are super easy in Norse languages, as they only have two main tenses, present and normal past tense, which are used the most, and two other tenses that use auxiliary verbs like ég hef lært (I have learnt) and ég mun / skal læra (I will / shall learn) which are super easy, and if one wants to say one is learning in Icelandic one just uses to be + the infinitive, for example, hann er að læra, which literally means he is to learn, but it is used as he is learning, as in, he is learning right now, so the tenses are super easy in Icelandic and Norse, and the endings are the same for each verb from each category of verbs, and the subjunctive mode is also easy as it also has the same patterns for each category of verbs, and the plural forms are almost always the same as the indicative forms, and the normal past tense for most verbs is created by adding an extra t or d or ð, so if one knows the infinitive and the present tense forms, it’s super easy to guess and to remember the past tense forms for most verbs, especially if one knows the conjugated verb endings / patterns well, and most verbs in Icelandic that are also in Norse are conjugated the same way and most forms are the same! To see progress fast, I highly recommend learning as many thousands of words as possible from vocab videos with hundreds and thousands of words, as opposed to only learning a few new words per day, because only learning a few new words per day is akin to passive learning and it can take over a decade, just like when one learns the first language, so one should load hundreds and thousands of new words into one’s hern regularly, and revise them many times on different days, over a longer period of time, so, revising each vocab video regularly, until each word can be instantly processed and automatically remembered, and also using G translate a lot to learn as many advanced words as possible, as vocab videos don’t cover most advanced terms, unfortunately, including advanced terms and idioms and phrases etc, as focusing on vocab is the most important part of actually learning the language! I also recommend learning a lot of lyrics in Icelandic and Norse, and learning every sound and letter and the pronunciation rules in the beginning, and learning the word endings well, by carefully observing and analyzing the patterns, because in Norse languages, most words follow the exact same patterns and have the same word endings that are associated with each group of nouns, and there are only a few exceptions, but in general the patterns and word endings are the same for each type of nouns, for example, masculine nouns when they are singular and definite in nominative always end in inn, and in accusative too, and the dative form usually has an i at the end if it’s indefinite, the plural definite word ending in genitive is always or almost always anna, the dative form for plural nouns that are indefinite is always um and for definite plurals it is always unum, and for definite masculine nouns it is always inum and num, and so on, and it is actually very easy to learn these patterns and to develop a sense for what sounds right in the languages, as Norse languages are super logical, though some forms need a few slight modifications to make them 100% perfect!

I highly recommend learning Icelandic and Norse 2gether with Dutch / Norwegian / Gothic / Faroese / Danish (and English if one doesn’t know it yet) because they are the prettiest languages ever and they are too pretty not to know, while also learning German, and also, the six modern Celtic languages Welsh / Breton / Cornish / Manx / Irish / Scottish Gaelic, which are also gorgeous, as learning many languages at the same time saves a lot of years and makes the learning process super fun, so I highly recommend learning all the target languages at the same time and prioritizing the Norse languages and Dutch the most, while also learning and revising new words in the others regularly, and always learning only pretty and easy languages, including all the Germanic languages and the modern Celtic languages and a few others, as these languages are all category 1 and category 2 languages (only Irish and Scottish Gaelic are category 3 spelling-wise, though the words are easy to memorize, just like Germanic words) and that means that one can learn many of them at the same time, which is the most efficient way to learn languages, especially if one has many target languages, like I do, having over 50 target languages! It’s very important to revise each word regularly, by the way, because revising and repeating the words regularly is key to learning the words, like, truly learning them permanently and automatically, and I also recommend typing a lot in the new language or languages and saying the words many times, first slowly, and then trying to say them faster and faster, to also develop an automatic mode in the new language or languages, if one wants to be able to say everything fast and without having to think about it, as natives do! I highly recommend learning all the Skáld lyrics, which are a great way to start learning these Norse languages like Icelandic / Norse / Faroese, and there are even some songs in Norwegian / Danish / Swedish, and they all have awesome and pretty melodies, so they are very áddìctive, which makes it very easy for one to listen to them many times, until one learns the lyrics well! I am learning every single Germanic language, including the Norse languages and the Old / Middle versions of each Germanic language and the modern Celtic languages etc, and I focus mostly on vocab, and also watching all sorts of videos and movies with subs in the target languages, and learning lots of lyrics, and learning the grammar etc, and I can see very fast progress, so I highly recommend using these methods! Icelandic and Norse and the other Norse languages are so pretty, they are a must-learn for every learner, and Dutch / Gothic / Norwegian etc too, plus they are also the most alpha languages with the coolest and most modern sounds, they are as gorgeous / refined / poetic / magical / perfect as English, which is also mostly a Norse language as English comes mostly from Norse - these languages are real fun to speak / learn / see / hear etc!

Re sentence structure and word orders in Icelandic and Norse, they are actually the same as in English, which makes it very easy for one to express ideas in Norse languages, and they are even more flexible in Norse as I have seen all sorts of random word orders in Norse that I wouldn’t even normaIly use, but they are also super flexible in Icelandic, just like in English, so Icelandic doesn’t have any fixed word orders and different rules for verbs etc, like Dutch and German, for example, so it’s naturally very easy to form sentences in Icelandic if one knows the words - to get better at forming sentences, I highly recommend learning every single preposition / conjunction / adverb of time etc and the pronouns and the most used 300 verbs and the most used nouns and adjectives in the beginning, including the words that one uses the most, and to analyze and practice different sentences and different constructions regularly, for example, one can think about how would one express a certain idea in English and then translate it to Icelandic, and analyzing it in detail, and even learning whole sentences in the beginning, which can help a lot, when it comes to forming sentences, and typing / saying etc those sentences multiple times, regularly, and using them a lot, and learning hundreds and thousands of new words every day or every other day, while also regularly revising previously learnt words!

Some examples of sentences in Icelandic that I revise regularly and that I type a lot and that I have analyzed in detail... Ég hef talað Ensku síðan þegar ég vas (var) tveggja eða triggja ára! En ég get líka talað Hollensku og Norsku og Spænsku og FornNorrænu! Ég get talað Íslensku reiprennandi og ég em (er) ekki með neina hreim! Ef ég gæti lært annað mál, hvað væri það? Það væri auðvitað Danska! Ég em (er) að hugsa að það er mikilvægt að læra að minnsta kosti eitt erlent tungumál, eða flest fallegu tungumálin! Svo ég valdi Íslensku og ég héld áfram að læra hana... En ertu frá hinum hlutanum? Ísland er ekki eitt sjálfstætt land ennþá! Þegar ég segi Ísland, hvað er það fyrsta sem dettur þér í (hug) hugi?

Ég heiti Maëlle og er frá Frakklandi. Ég flutti til Íslands fyrir þremur mánuðum síðan og er í námi í íslensku sem annað mál í Háskóla Íslands. Ég byrjaði á því að læra sænsku í háskóla í París og ég hitti aðra nemendur sem voru í íslenskunámi. Ég vissi eiginlega ekki að Ísland væri til og hafði ekki hugmynd um að íslenska væri tungumál. Ég heyrði íslensku fyrst í tónlist. Ég man eftir að hlusta á Sigur Rós og Ásgeir. Fannst mér það vera það fallegasta sem ég hafði heyrt (perhaps better to start the sentence with Mér fannst). Svo ég skipti úr sænsku í íslensku. Ég vil ekki segja að hlutir séu erfiðir eða auðveldir, en þegar ég hugsa um íslensku þá kemur orðið "challenging" í hugann. Íslenskukennarinn sagði að það væri eins og að synda á móti öldunum (I've never heard anyone say "að synda á móti öldunum" we usually say "að synda á móti straumnum". Still, I think it's beautiful to phrase it the way she does). Þú þarft endalausa vinnu og motivation til að drukkna ekki og þér líður eins og þú sért ekki að hreyfast. Setningar eru púsl. Sérstaklega vegna the declensions (ísl. beyginganna). Þær geta verið mjög pirrandi. Í frönsku lærir þú orð og þú getur síðan notað það. Ef þú vilt læra orð á íslensku þarftu að læra sextán útgáfur af því eða milljón útgáfur (hjá) af sagnorðum og adjectives (ísl. lýsingarorðum). Það er hræðilegt að eyða nóttinni í að læra orð á bin.is. Stundum byrja ég að gráta. Hjúkrunarfræðingurinn. Fyrst þurfti ég að enda í miðjunni á orðinu til þess að segja það. Mér finnst núna eins og ég geti sagt hvað sem er. Samt rólega og með frönskum hreim líka. Það er mjög erfitt að heyra muninn á þessum staf "i" og þessum "e". Þetta hér "hn" er líka mjög dularfullt. Ég er samt að verða betri í að skilja fólk. Það talar samt mjög hratt og þegar ég spyr það um að endurtaka sig (should say "bið það um að") segir það sömu setninguna aftur alveg jafn hratt og ég er bara vandræðaleg og skil ekki neitt. Og það besta er þegar ég fatta að ég skildi eitthvað án þess að reyna að skilja það. Og skilaboð til Íslendinga: Ef einhver er að reyna að tala íslensku, ekki byrja strax að tala ensku. Ef maður skilur ekki, endurtakið þá hægar og kannski einfaldar.

I'm living in Germany, learning German and sometimes Germans speak louder but not slower when I don't understand. It has been very frustrating because I've studied French, Dutch and Japanese but German has a grammar (and the cases) that also feels like swimming against the current. When I surrendered to sounding silly, for not getting a declension correct or speaking in very simple terms, I freed myself from my own expectations and now I can see the beauty of this language and it's hidden secrets. Icelandic is definitely on my future list!

I'm Russian and most of foreigners I've met tell me my language is complicated and hard to learn. But when I hear (or try to learn) Welsh and Icelandic, I realize where the REAL challenge is:) won't stop trying anyway! Actually it is helpful in a way that Russian grammar (and the way it's changed through times) and spelling is rather complex, I'm not scared of many tenses or word forms, but the pronunciation is often harrrrrd to learn. My tongue just gets twisted))
