Old Icelandic is a variety of Old West Norse that emerged during the Norse settlement of Iceland in the second half of the 9th century. The rich tradition of Icelandic literature survived by oral tradition over several centuries before being written down in the 13th Century. The Tale of Thiðrandi and Thórhall ( iðranda  áttr ok  órhalls) is one of the many Tales of Icelanders or Íslendinga  ttir. The word ' áttr' (plural: '  ttir') translates as a strand of rope or a yarn, comparable to the word 'yarn' in English sometimes used to refer to a story.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book contains: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- The Tale of Thiðrandi and Thórhall ( iðranda  áttr ok  órhalls) (Old Norse Version)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- An Old Norse to English Word List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- An English to Old Norse Word List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- The Tale of Thiðrandi and Thórhall ( iðranda  áttr ok  órhalls) (Old Icelandic Version)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- An Old Icelandic to English Word List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- An English to Old Icelandic Word List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- A Word Comparison of Old Norse and Old Icelandic words\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe texts are presented in their original form, with a literal word-for-word line-by-line translation, and a Modern English translation, all side-by-side.
