Irregular superlatives Exercises in Islandic language
Mastering the intricacies of any language requires a deep understanding of its unique grammatical structures, and Icelandic is no exception. One particularly challenging aspect is the use of irregular superlatives, which do not follow the standard rules of comparison. These superlatives are essential for conveying the highest degree of a quality, and their irregular forms often need to be memorized individually.
