Se epai de Islan = I come from Iceland

Is this correct?

I'm probably wrong, but doesn't Verdurian have pro-drop? I don't think the pronoun "se" would be necessary unless you want to emphasize it, like in Spanish.

I'm not sure how you chose epan there; it means 'can'.

It should be Zhai de Islan?n. Or alternatively, Ai Islanei.

What ever you say. I just saw that verb in alike context so I put it there. I had no idea if it was correct or not.
