nafnorðhvorugkynfor-vað
shoal water between the cliffs and the flowing tide: hence the phrase, í síðustu forvöð, to pass the last shoal water before the tide cuts the passage off, also to delay till the last moment; göra flekann allan, ok halda upp forvöðunum þar í hjá, vi. 167, where it seems to mean a ford.
