Questions & Answers about Við borgum leiguna á réttum tíma í hverjum mánuði.
Why is the verb borgum and not borgar in this sentence?
The verb borgum is the present-tense form of borga (to pay) for first person plural (we).
Present tense of borga:
- ég borga – I pay
- þú borgar – you (singular) pay
- hann / hún / það borgar – he / she / it pays
- við borgum – we pay
- þið borgið – you (plural) pay
- þeir / þær / þau borga – they pay
Since the subject is við (we), the correct form is borgum, not borgar.
Borgar would be used with þú, hann, hún, or það.
