Pronouns in Icelandic
There are personal (ég, þú), reflexive (sig), possessive (minn, þinn), demonstrative (þessi, hinn), and indefinite (enginn) pronouns in Icelandic.
Personal pronouns in Icelandic are declined in the four cases and for number in the singular and plural.
Icelandic has separate masculine, feminine and neuter words for they. When talking about a group of mixed gender people or items, the neuter form is used.
Examples
I: ég | You: þú |
He: hann | She: hún |
We: við | They: þeir/þær/þau |
