Imperative Sentences Exercises For Icelandic Grammar

Immerse in language learning with grammar exercises 

Imperative sentences (also known as commands) in Icelandic grammar are formed in a unique way. When we want to give an order, offer advice, make a request, or propose a toast in Icelandic, we use the imperative form of the verb. Icelandic, like many other languages, conjugates verbs differently in the imperative, often by dropping the pronoun or inverting the word order. An English example would be the difference between “You go home” (indicative) and “Go home!” (imperative).
