takmarkaðrar

Takmarkaðrar is a grammatical form in Icelandic, an inflected variant of the adjective takmarkaður, meaning limited or restricted. Like other Icelandic adjectives, takmarkaður declines to agree with the gender, number, and case of the noun it modifies. Takmarkaðrar typically appears with feminine nouns in certain cases, most commonly the genitive singular and the dative singular in the strong declension. The ending reflects the noun’s case and definiteness and is one of several possible feminine endings for this adjective.

Etymology and sense: The word is built from takmarka, meaning to limit, with the adjective-forming suffix -aður, yielding takmarkaður for masculine or general use. Takmarkaðrar is one of its inflected forms used in specific grammatical contexts.

Usage: In formal Icelandic texts—such as legal, administrative, and economic writing—the form takmarkaðrar describes restrictions or limits associated with a feminine noun. Because Icelandic requires agreement between adjectives and the nouns they modify, the exact form changes to fit the noun being described.

Notes: Takmarkaðrar is not a standalone lexical item with a separate meaning; it is a word-form variant of the adjective takmarkaður used to maintain grammatical agreement within a sentence.
