Magatsu Posted December 13, 2003 Share Posted December 13, 2003 I am from Norway in europe (where all the vikings lived)its funny to see that the names the "Nords" use in morrowind is linked to Norwegian. Examples: Fjell = Mountain Udyr = Monster Frykte = Fear Ben / bein = Bone Stygg = Ugly Stein = Rock i dont remember many of the rest of the names in solstenheim right now but very very many is taken right out of the Norwegian language.

Stormscape Posted December 13, 2003 Share Posted December 13, 2003 well, depending on how you prnounce Skaal, it can sound like Skull...that's all I found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magatsu Posted December 13, 2003 Author Share Posted December 13, 2003 Skaal = Skål That kind of means Cheers! As in two nords drinking mead ^_^ But i dont think that was what they meant with the village name.... Also, "Berg" is synonymous to "fjell", mountain that is...

Magatsu Posted December 15, 2003 Author Share Posted December 15, 2003 If there were found evidence of what u said, would USA belong to denmark then? :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchik Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 Lief Erikcsson is said to have discovered the US of A (more probably Canada) and Greenland is a case to consider. Ah, at what point in time does history replace a conqueror? Do the Brits still own Calais? Has Israel a right to lands it lost 2000 years before? Don't go there. It will end in tears!
