etymon

Ég er að reyna að hugsa um leið að segja „Eyjahafið“ án ákveða greinisins, en ég get það ekki. Er „Eyjahaf“ jafnvel gilt orð?

I’m trying to think of a way to say “the Aegean” without the definite article, but I can’t. Is “Aegean” even a valid word?

Ég myndi verða sjómaður — eins og faðir minn — en þá gat maður sigla Eyjahaf ósnortið af menguninni og ofveiðinni sem er alls staðar þar í dag.

I would become a sailor — like my dad — but back then you could sail an Aegean untouched by the pollution and overfishing which are everywhere there today.

The Aegean Sea; an elongated embayment of the Mediterranean Sea between Europe and Asia which is located between the Balkans, Anatolia, and the Levantine Basin.
