líkamlegum

Líkamlegum is an Icelandic adjective meaning "physical" or "bodily". It is the dative plural form of the adjective líkamlegur. This form is used when referring to something in relation to multiple physical bodies or when an action is directed towards them. For example, "líkamlegum áreitni" translates to "physical assault" or "physical harassment", indicating an action directed at a person's body. The word derives from "líkami", meaning "body". Therefore, líkamlegum relates to the tangible, corporeal aspects of existence, as opposed to mental, emotional, or spiritual aspects. It is commonly used in contexts discussing health, exercise, sports, and any situation involving the human body's physical state or actions. Understanding the grammatical case is crucial for its correct usage in Icelandic sentences.
