[8] stár ‘stands’: This is the 3rd pers. sg. pres. indic. of a verb stá ‘stand’ (instead of the regular standa ‘stand’), a late, analogous formation (cf. gá ‘go’ and ganga ‘go’; see ANG §504, Anm. 4). Stá ‘stand’ is earliest attested in prose in 1459, and it also occurs in old rímur (see Schottmann 1973, 352).
