Endurtekinn

Endurtekinn is an Icelandic adjective meaning “repeated” or “reiterated.” It is used to describe something that has occurred more than once or has been performed again, such as a procedure, an event, text, or measurement.

Etymology: The word is formed from the prefix endur- meaning “again” or “anew,” attached to a stem related to the verb that means to repeat. The form endurtekinn is the masculine singular; Icelandic adjectives inflect for gender, number, and definiteness, so other forms exist to agree with the noun they modify.

Usage: Endurtekinn appears across different domains. In editing or publishing, it can describe duplicated text. In education, it may refer to a retaken exam. In science or statistics, it can denote a repeated measurement. The term is neutral and common in both formal and informal Icelandic. Related words include the noun endurtekning, meaning repetition, and the verb endurteka (to repeat), which share the same root.
