Icelandese

Yesterday for my last real dinner, my parents took me to the awesome Chinese restaurant in the next town, site of birthdays in grade school, and celebratory dinners with various sports teams in college.

They've expanded their menu recently, so I decided on sushi, and as I ordered the Tekka Maki, I caught myself pre-aspirating the first word like a good Icelander. Hope that bodes well for my future Icelandic-speaking abilities...
