The film uses modern Norwegian and the occasional Swedish as a stand in for Old Norse, which was the language of the vikings. The vikings the real Ahmed Ibn Fahdlan encountered were the Rus (Swedish-Slavic vikings) and would have spoken East Norse, the dialect of Old Norse that later became Swedish and Danish. Norwegian vikings would have spoken West Norse, a dialect that gave rise to Norwegian, Faroese and Icelandic.
