Tagged for speedy deletion, but this has been there since September 14, 2005 (last edited 9 years ago), so shouldn't be speedied. Still SOP, though. It claims to be a phrasebook entry, but it's incomplete: it literally means "are you", and is supposed to be followed by the name of the person you're addressing, as in "Are you John?". Aside from being SOP, it's also a bit of a fossil, with no templates and no categorization except for Category:Icelandic phrasebook. Chuck Entz (talk) 15:45, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
 * There's a contracted form though. —CodeCat 18:56, 28 August 2016 (UTC)
 * @ User:CodeCat It doesn't matter. Take a look at do not's deletion, for example, and that was just a redirect. Strong delete; SOP. We don't have an entry for are you either, and it just means the same thing as that. Philmonte101 (talk) 20:15, 28 August 2016 (UTC)

 * PS we have an entry for she'll but not she will. It's not both or neither. Renard Migrant (talk) 20:10, 29 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Not to mention a direct cognate of the contraction, artow- but not art thou. Chuck Entz (talk) 03:24, 1 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete. We can have you're despite not having you are. --WikiTiki89 15:17, 22 September 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete per Renard and Chuck and Wikitiki. Icelandic is far from the only language to have both contracted and uncontracted forms of "are you" and the like; Low German and various Bavarian-ish lects in Italy do similarly. - -sche (discuss) 22:00, 29 September 2016 (UTC)
