Yrða

fas

nafnorðhvorugkyn
gait, bearing; say, vera hægr, stilltr í fasi, or fas-góðr, fas-prúðr, of gentle gait and bearing; fas-mikill, rushing: this word, though in use at the present time, seems never to occur in old writers, unless it be in arga-fas, : the etymology is uncertain, perhaps from fashion, face; it seems at all events to be of foreign origin; at the time of Pal Vídalín it was in full use, Skýr. 90.
