Definite Nouns Exercises For Icelandic Grammar

Language learners practicing hard on grammar task

Definite Nouns in Icelandic grammar (greinisetning) are indicated by a suffix attached to the noun. Unlike English where ‘the’ is used before the noun to show definiteness, in Icelandic, a definite article is added at the end of the noun. The definite article changes depending on the gender (masculine, feminine, or neuter), the number (singular or plural), and the case (nominative, accusative, dative, or genitive).
