Við förum yfir skjalið saman á morgun.

Yes. Að fara yfir is a very common Icelandic expression meaning to go over, to review, or to examine together.

So in this sentence, förum yfir skjalið means something like go over the document rather than physically moving over it.

A useful thing to remember is that yfir by itself often means over, but here it is part of the expression fara yfir.

Icelandic often uses the present tense for near-future actions when the time is made clear by context.

So:

• Við förum ... á morgun = We are going / will go ... tomorrow

This works much like English in sentences such as We’re meeting tomorrow.

Icelandic does have ways to talk about the future, but in everyday speech the present tense is extremely common when a time expression like á morgun already shows that the action is in the future.

Because förum is simply the correct we form of the verb að fara.

The present tense of að fara is:

• ég fer = I go
• þú ferð = you go
• hann/hún/það fer = he/she/it goes
• við förum = we go
• þið farið = you go
• þeir/þær/þau fara = they go

So við förum is the standard form you need to learn as part of this verb’s conjugation.

Here við means we.

That is important because við can also be a preposition in other contexts, with meanings such as with, against, or by, depending on the sentence.

In Við förum yfir skjalið saman á morgun, it is clearly the pronoun we because it is the subject of the verb förum.

Skjal means document.

The ending -ið is the definite article attached to the noun, so:

• skjal = a document / document
• skjalið = the document

In Icelandic, the word for the is usually attached to the end of the noun rather than written as a separate word.

Since skjal is a neuter noun, the definite singular form is skjalið.

It is the direct object of fara yfir, so it is functioning as an accusative object.

However, there is one small wrinkle: for many neuter nouns, the nominative and accusative singular look the same. So skjalið would look the same in both cases.

That means you know its role mainly from the sentence structure and from the verb expression fara yfir e-ð, which takes an object.

So even though the form does not visibly change here, it is still serving as the object.

Saman means together.

So:

• Við förum yfir skjalið saman = We will go over the document together

It tells you that the action is done jointly, by the people included in við.

Its placement is very natural here, after the object and before the time phrase.

Á morgun is the normal Icelandic expression for tomorrow.

Literally, á often means on, and morgun is related to morning. But as a whole expression, á morgun simply means tomorrow.

So it is best to learn it as a set phrase:

• í dag = today
• á morgun = tomorrow
• í gær = yesterday

Trying to translate each word too literally is usually less helpful than just memorizing the full time expression.

Yes, some parts can move, but Icelandic still follows important word-order rules.

The given sentence is:

• Við förum yfir skjalið saman á morgun.

You could also say:

• Á morgun förum við yfir skjalið saman.

That is still natural, and it puts more emphasis on tomorrow.

A very important rule in Icelandic is that the finite verb usually comes second in main clauses. So when á morgun is moved to the front, förum still stays in second position:

• Á morgun
  • förum
    • við ...

That is a key pattern to notice.

A helpful rough guide is:

• við ≈ vith with the th of this
• yfir ≈ I-vir or IH-vir
• skjalið ≈ SKYA-lith or SKYA-lith

A few pronunciation notes:

• ð is usually like the th in this, not the th in thin
• y in Icelandic is pronounced like i
• j often sounds like English y

So in skjalið, the middle part has a kind of ya sound because of j.

These are only rough English-based guides, but they are a good starting point.

Yes, definitely.

It is very useful to learn að fara yfir as a complete expression, just as an English learner might learn go over as one unit.

That helps you understand sentences like:

• Við förum yfir skjalið = We go over the document
• Kennarinn fór yfir verkefnið = The teacher went over the assignment

Learning common verb combinations this way makes Icelandic much easier to understand and produce naturally.
