Phonology

Consonants

Dry Icelandic uses the following consonants:

  • The velar stops g, k, ŋ, which are pronounced /k, kʰ, ŋ/. When geminated they are pronounced /ʔk, hk, kŋ/ respectively.
  • The dental stops d, t, n, which are pronounced /t, tʰ, n/. When geminated they are pronounced /ʔt, ht, tn/ respectively.
  • The lateral affricates , ξ, which are pronounced /tɬ, tɬʰ/. When geminated they are pronounced /ʔtɬ, htɬ/ respectively.
  • The alveolar affricates dz, c, which are pronounced /ts, tsʰ/. When geminated they are pronounced /ʔts, hts/ respectively.
  • The fricatives h, σ, s, which are pronounced /x, ɬ, s/ respectively.
  • The labials b, p, m, which are pronounced /p, pʰ, m/. When geminated they are pronounced /ʔp, hp, pm/ respectively.
  • The resonants l, r, v, j pronounced /l, r, v, j/. When geminated they are pronounced /tl, tr, kv, c/ respectively.

The majority of consonants come in expected plain and palatalized pairs. Exceptions are noted here:

  • Hard , č are pronounced /q, qʰ/. When geminated they are pronounced /ʔq, hq/ respectively.
  • Soft , č are pronounced /tʂ, tʂʰ/. When geminated they are pronounced /ʔtʂ, htʂ/ respectively.
  • Hard þ, ð, š are pronounced /ħ, ʕ, χ/ respectively.
  • Soft þ, ð, š are pronounced /ɕ, ʑ, ʂ/ respectively.
  • Soft f, v are pronounced /ç, j/ respectively. (Soft v behaves identically to j.)

Vowels

Dry Icelandic has 2 short vowels and 5 long vowels.

  • Short vowels: a ja y i = /a ʲa i ʲi/
  • Long vowels: á já é jé ý í ó jó ú jú = /aː ʲaː ia ʲia iː ʲiː ua ʲua uː ʲuː/
