frakka
nafnorðkvenkyn
u, [ franca], a kind of spear; Grimm thinks that the framea of Tacitus is merely a corruption of franca, a suggestion which seems to be almost certain; in northern poems and writers this word only occurs in 32, whence it was probably taken into (Gl.); on the other hand, we have an frakki, a, a kind of weapon, in the compd hræ-f., a ‘carrion-fluke,’ the blade of a sword, 7 (in a verse); and akkeris-frakki, a, an ‘anchor-fluke (?),’ in a verse of 996, 92: again, the frakka of the was probably borrowed from
2. Frakki, a, a proper name, ; Frakka-nes, a farm.
