“10 More Drops”

Imagine you’ve savored a mug of delightful Viking gold and desire a refill. In Canada, a simple “please” suffices when asking someone to top up your mug. However, in Iceland, the customary way to make this request is by saying, “Tiu dropper, takk,” which translates to “Ten more drops, please.”

Uttering this phrase will likely result in your mug being refilled, regardless of your beverage of choice. This phrase is an excellent starting point for those eager to immerse themselves in the local culture and language.
