Skráðar

Skráðar is an Icelandic term that functions as the feminine plural form of the past participle of the verb skrá, meaning to write down, record, or register. As a verbal adjective, skrárðar describes something that has been registered or documented, and it is used to modify feminine plural nouns.

The word derives from Old Norse skrá, with the modern Icelandic sense preserved in contexts involving lists, registries, archives, and official records. In contemporary Icelandic, skráðar commonly appears in administrative and archival language, as well as in literature, to indicate that items or persons have been formally entered into a register or record.

Grammatical use and agreement: skráðar is the feminine plural form, used with feminine plural nouns in the nominative or accusative cases. It can function attributively, as in a phrase like skráðar konur (registered women) or skráðar upplýsingar (registered information), and it can also appear predicatively in sentences such as konurnar eru skráðar (the women are registered).

Related terms include skrá (to write down or register), skráning (registration or recording), and other inflected forms of the past participle skráður/skráð, depending on gender and number. Skráðar represents how Icelandic marks the result of an action—namely, that something has been officially recorded.
