lýsingarþáttum

Lýsingarþáttur is a grammatical category in Icelandic that is used to describe the attributes or qualities of a noun. It is similar to adjectives in other languages. The lýsingarþáttur is formed by adding the suffix -ur to the base form of the adjective. For example, the adjective "stór" (big) becomes "stórir" (big) when used as a lýsingarþáttur to describe a noun. The lýsingarþáttur agrees with the noun it describes in terms of gender, number, and case. This means that the form of the lýsingarþáttur changes depending on whether the noun it describes is masculine, feminine, neuter, singular, or plural, and in which case it is used. For example, the lýsingarþáttur "stórir" (big) would change to "stórar" if it were describing a feminine noun in the nominative case. The lýsingarþáttur is an important part of Icelandic grammar and is used to provide more information about nouns in sentences.
