A background in a Scandinavian language probably would've been helpful with the many names here (objects even have proper names!) so please make a note if any seem terribly 'off'. (Few things bug me like newscasters who bungle name or place pronunciations - so I really try to avoid that, even for my somewhat smaller audience).

Thank you,
Brize

Hello Brize,
I think you did a fine job with pronunciation! At 25:20 please change "tree" to "light" in "He hates that asa-light whose rays benignant."

Thanks,
Lora

Thanks, Lora. In my mind of minds, I thought I had 'asa' pegged as an ash tree, and it showed!
Now recorded as writ:

Hi Guys,

at the end of some of the poems it says Name then TR, I just wondered what that stood for and how you would read that ? sorry if this is a silly question :)

The "TR" stands for translation, so after saying the name, the word "translation" follows. It's a good question!
