Many thanks for continuing the series. I'm too poor to support in any other way than giving views and buying your books, but it's highly appreciated, making this content free on YT as well.
As everyone has said, please, please, please keep making these. Norse Paganism is extremely close to me, and many other people out there. Please, don't stop trying to teach. "If you're going to be on the Roads of this world, The best burden you can carry is wisdom. A Shrewd mind is better than wealth when you're lost in unknown places. It is a refuge from woe".
I am more connected to my ancestral line because of you and what you've done here. Can't tell you how much I appreciate you for it. Thanks so much, Jackson.
Thank you do much for continuing to offer these instructional videos-- I started with you when your channel began, and since then I have gone though the Valfells and Cathey text (which I realize hasn't explicitly been one of your recommendations, but their focus on grammar is perfect for me). I'm nearly finished with the last few lessons now, and I couldn't have made it without these supplementary lessons on your channel, and the inspiration that they provide. Many thanks, and may you continue to find happiness in your pursuits here on TH-cam.
The Drengr concept is cool because its on its way to go full circle in the swedish language. A millenia ago it was a very positive then sometime in late medieval or early modern time a dräng became a servant and in 1800ds it became a specific term for a farmhand. Now the streetlanguage has picked that up and it has become a word for low level gang member but In one or two instances I've heard it in rap songs with a almost positive like made man meaning!
If you can see someone's breath, it's probably cold. No one is impressed that you can handle lower temperatures. It's around 3 Celsius & the body adapts to location. If it were suddenly 32, you likely would complain about the heat while others would feel completely comfortable. It's not unusual to hit that in Wyoming. How often do you get it? I really don't understand why people make it a competitive thing when you're just adapting to your environment. A little girl in Sudan can handle heat better than a big strong man in Norway. Or, the reverse, a little girl in Norway can handle cold that would hurt a man from Sudan. It doesn't say anything about you. But pointing it out? That says a lot.

Hi from the Faroe Islands🇫🇴
Hygga síggj, so vóru vit tveir føroyingar her. :)

I've learned enough to be able to follow along with your texts in your videos, still working on it!
What extraordinary terrain there! I would love to just go and camp in that area.
I've watched all of these videos but I've never sat down and learned the content. Keep on making them!
Best thing to do is read. Learn the nouns you trip up on with flash cards, case and tense after a while are kinda intuitive.
I'm gonna need to pay more attention to these language vids. I just got the books on learning old norse.
I really appreciate this educational content for this really heckin cool language.
Great content, I missed that series!
Thank you for continuing this series. It really is appreciated 👍

Sir, it must be COLD for you to change to a knit hat.
Lol he's gotta get that background
I'll be honest, I came here for the cowboy in a beanie.
Staying coz it's Jackson and he's cool. Commenting to appeal to the algorithm gods.
Nice description of getting pummeled by Old Norse grammar.
Hello sir...could you kindly tell me how a man would say to a lady I have come to you in old norse? I need it for an art. Thank you in advance.

Off topic: can you explain why people say the tense in kennings would make them impossible in English? All I see is circumlocatious talking.
did you lose your cowboy hat in the fire? what do you mean cold. here its - 15 celcius. that doesnt look cold to me.
