Questions & Answers about Við viljum frekar borða heima.
What form is the verb viljum, and how does vilja conjugate?
viljum is the 1st‑person plural present of vilja (to want). Present tense:
- ég vil
- þú vilt
- hann/hún/það vill
- við viljum
- þið viljið
- þeir/þær/þau vilja
Past (for reference): ég vildi, við vildum.
Why is there no að before borða?
After modal auxiliaries like vilja, munu, skulu, mega, the next verb is a bare infinitive (no að): Við viljum borða...
Many other verbs do take að: Við reynum að borða heima.
What does frekar mean here, and where should it go?
frekar means “rather/preferably.” Default placement is after the finite verb and before the main infinitive: Við viljum frekar borða heima.
It can move for emphasis, but keep the finite verb in second position: Heima viljum við frekar borða is also fine.
Can I use heldur instead of frekar?
