[post_page_title]Keeping the language[/post_page_title]
What language did the Vikings speak? It is believed that they spoke an Old Norse language which ultimately morphed into modern Icelandic, Norwegian and Swedish languages.
Historians believe that the modern Icelandic language is most similar to the Old Norse that the Vikings spoke. There is one town in Sweden called Alvdalen that has preserved the Old Norse language and up until the 1950’s, they even wrote in the ancient runes alphabet. Alvdalen was a sort of time capsule of Viking culture that was preserved into the modern world.
