Can someone (fluent in icelandic) help. The word I want translated in English is "Icelandic Tolt". Tolt is a horse trot. I just need to know if the "Icelandic" word is- Islenska? Islensk? Islenskar?

Can someone (fluent in icelandic) please help me translate a few words? I have looked it up in Google Translate but I am not 100% certain that it is correct. The word I want translated in English is "Icelandic Tolt". Tolt is a special gait of the icelandic horse. "Islensku Tolt" is what I think the translation should be, but I have also seen "Islenski" also being the word for "Islandic". I don't know if the translation depends on the word the adjective is describing. Any thoughts?

It depends; the name of the language is ”íslenaka” but if you want to use it as an adjective it’s ”íslenskur” - in this case it’ll be ”íslenskt” as ”tölt” is a neuter noun
