"foreldrar" meaning in Icelandic

See foreldrar in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈfɔːrɛltrar/ Audio: Is-foreldrar.oga
Etymology: Once variants (“tvímyndir; a different spelling, pronunciation, or form of the same word”) of foreldri (“a parent”). It is rare that a word's gender differs between grammatical numbers, but modern dictionaries generally list them as two distinct words — even though their form and declension is similar. The reason for this disparity in usage is the masculine word's lack of singular form. Head templates: {{is-noun|@@}} foreldrar m pl (plural only, genitive plural foreldra) Inflection templates: {{is-ndecl|m.pl}} Forms: foreldra [genitive, plural], no-table-tags [table-tags], foreldrar [indefinite, nominative, plural], foreldrarnir [definite, nominative, plural], foreldra [accusative, indefinite, plural], foreldrana [accusative, definite, plural], foreldrum [dative, indefinite, plural], foreldrunum [dative, definite, plural], foreldra [genitive, indefinite, plural], foreldranna [definite, genitive, plural]
  1. (plural only) parents; (mother and father, or any combination thereof) (genealogical abbreviation for.) Tags: masculine, plural, plural-only
