kölluðar

Kölluðar is an Icelandic term that translates to "called" or "summoned." In Icelandic grammar, it functions as a past participle. It can be used in various contexts, often to describe something or someone that has been named, invited, or referred to.

For instance, the word can appear in phrases like "hún var kölluð til fundar," meaning "she was called to a meeting." Here, "kalluð" is the feminine singular past participle of the verb "að kalla" (to call). The term's form changes depending on the gender and number of the noun it modifies.

The concept of "kalluð" is fundamental to understanding Icelandic verb conjugations and sentence structure. It signifies an action that has been performed upon a subject. Beyond literal calling, it can also imply being designated for a role or purpose. For example, someone might be "kallaður til þess" meaning "called to it," referring to a responsibility or destiny. The precise meaning is often clarified by the surrounding context.
