You might find it strange that we still speak Icelandic, the ancient language of the Vikings... although our language today has undergone some changes of course. A Viking from the past would definitely find our pronunciation and vocabulary today very funny, but he WOULD be able to understand us. (Although I sincerely doubt he would understand some of the English slang that has found its way into the language...)
Look to the Icelandic language if you want to get an idea of how the the Vikings spoke all those centuries ago. The language has not changed that much in 1100 years, or since Iceland was first settled in the 9th century.
