óþolanlegar

óþolanlegar is an Icelandic adjective meaning "intolerable" or "unbearable". It is the feminine plural form of the adjective óþolanlegur. The word is derived from the verb þola, meaning "to bear" or "to endure", with the prefix ó- indicating negation, and the suffix -anlegur signifying "able to be". Thus, óþolanlegar literally translates to "not able to be borne".

Examples of its usage might include describing unbearable pain, intolerable circumstances, or unbearable weather. The adjective conveys a strong sense of suffering or extreme discomfort.

While óþolanlegar is a grammatical form, its usage in everyday language is significant. It is a common descriptor when expressing strong negative emotions or reactions to difficult situations. The intensity of the word emphasizes the severity of what is being described.
