Questions & Answers about Beygingin verður auðveldari þegar við æfum sömu sögnina í þátíð á hverjum degi.
Why does Beygingin end in -in?
Because Icelandic usually adds the definite article to the end of the noun instead of using a separate word like the.
So:
- beyging = inflection / conjugation
- beygingin = the inflection / the conjugation
In this sentence, Beygingin is in the nominative singular, because it is the subject of the sentence.
What exactly is verður here?
Verður is the present tense of verða, a very common verb meaning become, get, or sometimes will be, depending on context.
Here it means becomes / gets:
- Beygingin verður auðveldari = The conjugation becomes easier
A native English speaker may expect something like is easier, but Icelandic often uses verða when something changes into a new state.
Why is it auðveldari and not auðveld?
Because auðveldari is the comparative form: easier.
- auðveldur / auðveld / auðvelt = easy
- auðveldari = easier
The sentence is talking about improvement over time, so the comparative makes sense: the conjugation is not just easy, it is getting easier.
