Skundavisk

Etymology

From Middle Skundavisk from, fram, from Old Skundavisk fram, from Halmisk ᚠᚱᚨᛗ (fråm), from Proto-Germanic *fram. The irregular shift fram > from happened around the 13th century and may be due to Frisian influence. When the letter å became widely used in the 17th century, the word was respelt fråm to reflect its etymology.
