| | | Grænmetisæta | Explanation:
"Eigið þið til grænmetisrétti?" should do nicely, but as English is a second language to most Icelanders I recommend using English freely rather than wasting time trying to pronounce our rather long and eccentrically spelled language.
--------
Vegetarian is "grænmetisæta" in Icelandic, which literally means 'vegetable eater' (the extreme resolution is 'green-food-eater'. |
