This video is here due to inspiration from my sister, who was remarking what a curious accent Icelanders have when speaking English. I attribute much of this to the fact that in Icelandic, the first syllable in a word is always emphasized, and the rest is pronounced softly. "HEL-ga AND UL-ly EN-joy DR-ink-ing O-ran-ge juice" is my best attempt at an example of this.
