Pronunciation

  • IPA: /sə/ (attributive, before a consonant), /sən/ (attributive, before a vowel)

Etymology

  1. his, her, its (possessive pronoun)
  2. himself, herself, itself
    Synonyms: sỳ sílb

Declension

singular plural
attributive predicative attributive predicative
neuter masculine feminine neuter masculine feminine neuter masculine feminine neuter masculine feminine

genitive sìs sỳs sínes sýnos sìz síze síza
dative sỳm sỳn sýnum sýne sỳn sýnę

Notes

In deliberately archaising speech, the attributive forms sỳt, sỳn, sỳs, sỳm are pronounced /sət, sən, səs, səm/, however in ordinary speech these have all fallen together as /sə/ (/sən/ before a vowel).

Likewise, the forms sìs, sìz may be archaically pronounced /sʲɪs, sʲɪz/, but have fallen together as /sʲɪ/ (/sʲɪn/ before a vowel).

In very colloquial speech, the umlaut pattern may be totally abandoned in favour of harmonising with the following word, e.g. sì sìlb instead of sỳn sìlb; this is stigmatised however.

Predicative forms retain their "full" pronunciations, from sýt /sɨːt/ to sýnę /sɨːnʲə̃/.

Skundavisk

Etymology 1
