Questions & Answers about Hún kemur síðast á fundinn.

Why is it hún kemur and not hún koma?

Because kemur is the 3rd person singular form of the verb að koma (to come).

• ég kem = I come
• þú kemur = you come
• hún kemur = she comes

So the verb has to match hún (she), which is third person singular.

What does hún mean, and when is it used?

Hún means she.

It is the nominative singular feminine pronoun, so it is used when she is the subject of the sentence:

• Hún kemur = She comes

Compare:

• hann = he
• það = it

What does síðast mean here?

Here síðast means last in the sense of last to arrive or latest.

So in this sentence it tells us the order in which she arrives:

• Hún kemur síðast = She comes last

Be careful: síðast can also mean last time in other contexts, so the exact meaning depends on the sentence.

Why is síðast not changing form?
