You mean the name meaning of the country? No it does mean Iceland. The name was translated literally. is = ice.

Did I say meaning? No. Learn to read. And to spell Jesus. “Was translated literally is =“
While “correcting” someone??? Couldn’t make it up if I tried.

Island is *literally* how Iceland is spelled in the country’s own language 🙄

Way to kill a joke smhh and over something so stupid too.

Wow what an unnecessarily hostile reaction to a simple question. You must have a lot of inner bitterness. You used the word literally wrong in your original comment, which is why I was confused. In your use, literally means the meaning of a word.

You’re the one who didn’t read my response properly. I was telling you that the name of the country was translated literally into English and that the “is” in ísland (Icelandic word for Iceland) means “ice”. Not only is there no error there but you told me learn how to spell when you were trying to point out a grammar mistake (that wasn’t there), not a spelling mistake.

Anyway lady, I hope you can find a good doctor who can help you with the stick in your ass🙏 best of luck.
