Megi framtíðin gæfu þér færa.
Dear all,
I have a question to this phrase:
Megi framtíðin gæfu þér færa.
Is it also possible to change the structure of the sentence, like:
Megi framtíðin þér færa gæfu.
If yes, is there any difference in the meaning of the phrase?
Takk fyrir,
Fatma

To me both word orders seem a bit strange. I would have thought to use the following word order:
Megi framtíðin færa þér gæfu. Meaning - May the future bring you luck.

Megi framtíðin færa þér gæfu. Is more common and sound more normal than the other one which sounds formal and unnatural.
