Usage notes

[edit]
  • The pronounmaður declines as the noun, but cannot take the definite article.
  • It is placed in a clause in the same way as the noun, but the difference is in the stress: as a pronoun, it never takes the main stress in a sentence.
  • It also cannot be substituted with the pronounhann due to being a pronoun itself. Usage ofþú for thefourth person isproscribed.
