Questions & Answers about Ég klæði mig fyrst og klæði síðan dóttur mína.
Because sig is the reflexive form used for the 3rd person only, while the actual reflexive/object pronoun changes with the subject.
So:
- Ég klæði mig = I get dressed / I dress myself
- Þú klæðir þig = you get dressed
- Hann / hún klæðir sig = he / she gets dressed
So the dictionary gives að klæða sig as the general reflexive pattern, but with ég you must use mig, not sig.
Klæði is the 1st person singular present tense form of að klæða.
So:
- ég klæði = I dress / I get dressed
- þú klæðir = you dress
- hann / hún klæðir = he / she dresses
In this sentence, both instances of klæði mean I dress; the difference is in the object:
- Ég klæði mig = I dress myself / I get dressed
- (Ég) klæði dóttur mína = I dress my daughter
