Yrða

nökkvi2

nafnorðkarlkyn
a, ; in the phrase, þungr sem ‘nökkvi,’ or nökkva-þungr, of things like hay soaked with water or the like. This word can hardly be related to nökkvi, a boat; we think it is n-ökkvi, ökkr and ökvast, ‘þungr sem einn ökvi’ rapidly pronounced sem ‘nökvi, the n being taken from the preceding word, as in njóli (jóll, p. 326, col. 2).
