raça

Raða is an Icelandic verb meaning to arrange, order, or line up. It is used when organizing objects, lists, or schedules and can also describe putting items into a specific sequence. The general sense is neutral and applies to both physical and abstract arrangements, from tidying shelves to planning a timetable.

In usage, raða is typically transitive and often appears with phrases such as raða upp (to line up) or raða í röð (to arrange in a sequence). It can describe a wide range of activities, including sorting books, organizing a workshop program, or ordering steps in a procedure. Context often clarifies whether the emphasis is on placement, sequence, or grouping.

The noun röðun, derived from the same root, refers to the act or result of arranging or ordering, such as the ordering of data, people, or tasks. Related terms include raðun (the act of ranking or arranging in order) and associated phrases that express sequencing and organization.
