Questions & Answers about Hún skráir sig með kennitölu og símanúmeri.
Because skrá sig is the reflexive construction meaning “to sign up/register oneself.” Without sig, skrá means “to register (something/someone else).” So:
- Hún skráir sig = She registers herself (signs up).
- Hún skráir barnið = She registers the child. Dropping sig in your sentence would change the meaning or make it incomplete.
Sig is the 3rd‑person reflexive object pronoun; it refers back to the subject of the clause (here, hún). Hana means “her” (some other woman), not the subject herself.
- Hún skráir sig = She registers herself.
- Hún skráir hana = She registers her (another woman).
