    …independently measured at [37cm], and a cast of it has been included in a museum in Iceland.

    I have questions for Iceland; mostly about how to pronounce ð but we’ll get to that later

      Is that flacid or erect length?

      Edit: its erect length. When flacid, it was 25cm long

      It’s pronounced like the “th” in “weather.”

      The fucked up pronunciation in Icelandic comes from when you put to Ls together, e.g. Eyjafjallajökull. It makes an almost click sound. You can hear it on the wiki below.

      Like a T, but slide your tongue forward a little so it’s against your teeth

        Sort of. ð is the Icelandic rendering for both edh and thorn, depending on context. Edh is voiced, thorn isn’t.

        It’s the “unvoiced” part that confuses me

          voiced th is like this, that, mother

          unvoiced th like thick, thimble, thirty

          notice how the voiced th has a buzzing vocalization during the th sound, you can feel your teeth buzzing as you say the th in this

          but when you pronounce thirty that buzzing is absent and the first buzzing starts with the i (the vowel is the first voiced part).

          similar to th as in the English word thick, or a (usually apical) voiced alveolar non-sibilant fricative [ð̠],[2][3] similar to th as in the English word the

          Should do the trick, no?
