Questions & Answers about Þau skipuleggja tíma saman til að gera samband sitt sterkara og treysta hvort öðru.

Why is Þau used here instead of Þeir or Þær?

Icelandic has three plural third‑person pronouns:

• Þeir – they (masculine), used when the group is all male.
• Þær – they (feminine), used when the group is all female.
• Þau – they (neuter), used:
  • for mixed‑gender groups, or
  • when gender is unspecified/irrelevant.

In this sentence, Þau suggests either a mixed couple/group or simply a neutral they, which is very common when talking about a couple in general (like “partners in a relationship”) without focusing on gender.

What exactly does skipuleggja mean, and why is tíma in this form?

Skipuleggja means to plan / to organize / to arrange.

• The base noun is tími (time).
• Here we see tíma, which is accusative singular of tími.

In Icelandic, the direct object of a verb is often in the accusative.
So:

• Þau skipuleggja tíma = They plan (some) time.

There is no separate indefinite article, so tíma can mean time / a time / some time, depending on context.
