Words in Icelandic
Hállo everybody. I am using Italki for the first time, I hope I get a nice exprience here.

Well, I have two questions. First, does somebody know where I could find an Icelandic-English dictionary online? It is because I was searching for words definitions, but I am using Google translator, and sometimes there are two words which means the same. So I'm not sure the translation is doing well its job. Besides, to be sure, it's better to consult a dictionary.

Second, what is the difference between these words?:
-Andvari & Gola
-Fjara & Ströndin

Thank you all! Nice week

Answer

Sæll Pedro. Here is a good online Icelandic-English dictionary: http://digicoll.library.wisc.edu/IcelOnline/Search.TEId.html

As for the difference between those words: I don't know exactly. I wouldn't care too much. You will find out by repeatedly reading those words in context. Anyway, a native speaker will probably be able to tell you the difference, if you need it right now. :)

Answer

A strönd in Icelandic is a beach that you go on to have fun or bathe in the water - mainly a public place with light-coloured sand. Fjara is more of a shore/coast, often with black sand and rocks, and it's not the ideal place to go for a swim.

Fjara is also a word that describes the sea level (tide). 
In that case, fjara = low tide, flóð = high tide.
