hvaða
fornafn
, throughout all cases and genders [see hverr], what, which, but only as an adjective, never as a pronoun, hvaða menn, hvaða konur, hvaða skip? whereas hverr () is used as a substantive; hvaða is a form from the old hvat or hvatta (), and is hardly found in old vellums, except with a ; hvaða snúð (), 266; hvaða burði, viii. 8; whereas in speech hvaða as an has almost displaced the old hverr, which is at present only used in the substantive sense.
