While in Iceland this time I was able to pick up and read some children's picture books lying around my friend's house – that's about my level...if you count "understanding at most half of it" as a level. ;-) It's more Icelandic than I know... ^___^
I've just listened to Lentesneeuw and had a look at the lyrics - so pretty but such a sad song.
It does seem like a very good idea to use songs to learn more of your target language. I've actually got some recommendations bookmarked for singers and bands that sing in Dutch. I must go through them properly. I've gathered quite a lot of useful info from old discussions in the Dutch forum on Duolingo. Also from the Learn Dutch community on Reddit (I just lurk there - definitely not keen on joining Reddit.) But at the moment my two favourite Dutch singers are Eefje de Visser and Maaike Ouboter ^__^
