gulur ( “ yellow ” ) , djúpur ( “ deep ” ) , drjúgur ( “ substantial; conceited ” ) , dökkur ( “ dark ” ) , frægur ( “ famous ” ) , fullur ( “ full ” ) , glöggur ( “ clear ” ) , grunnur ( “ shallow ” ) , heitur ( “ hot ” ) , helgur ( “ holy ” ) , hvítur ( “ white ” ) , hvorugur ( “ neither (of two) ” ) , illur ( “ bad; angry ” ) , íslenskur ( “ Icelandic ” ) , lágur ( “ low ” ) , líkur ( “ like, similar ” ) (hvílíkur ( “ what, what kind of ” ) , ólíkur ( “ unlike, different ” ) , þvílíkur ( “ such ” ) ), ljótur ( “ ugly ” ) , mjúkur ( “ soft ” ) , ríkur ( “ rich ” ) , slíkur ( “ such ” ) , slæmur ( “ bad; unwell ” ) , sterkur ( “ strong ” ) , sumur ( “ some ” ) , sætur ( “ sweet ” ) , tómur ( “ empty ” ) , ungur ( “ young ” ) , þröngur ( “ narrow ” ) , þungur ( “ heavy ” ) , þunnur ( “ thin ” ) , þykkur ( “ thick ” ) , þýskur ( “ German ” ) , örlátur ( “ generous ” ) , öruggur ( “ safe, sure, reliable ” ) 'comp' by itself means the same as 'comp:+' i.e. there is a comparative and it uses the default algorithm. Having a comparative implies a superlative by default. By default the superlative(s) is/are derived from the specified comparative(s) by replacing -ri, -li or -ni with -stur. Use '-sup' to turn off superlatives. Note that 'sup:+' is not the same as omitting 'sup' if 'comp:...' is specified, because 'sup:+' requests the default superlative whereas omitting the 'sup' derives the superlative(s) from the specified comparative(s).
gulur heitur helgur hvítur íslenskur ljótur ríkur sterkur sætur tómur þýskur örlátur öruggur {{is-adecl |comp|pagename=gulur}}'^' stands for the (uncontracted) umlauted stem; if the stem ends in -ur, this umlauts the portion before -ur. ^! stands for the contracted umlauted stem. Note that -Crr- will be elided to -Cr- when constructing the comparative. This means for example that , and by itself for the comparative means the stem is umlauted and -ri is added. If contraction is active, the contracted stem is used (which means the -r- of -ri will usually be elided). '^' by itself for the superlative means -st is added to the uncontracted stem.
