1 vág-rek
n. [the vág- may be but a popular attempt at etymology or a misapprehension of an older form vrek or vrak, cp. ‘quae cognominantur lingua Danica wrech,’ Thork. Dipl. i. 3; ‘wrek quoque quod specialiter nobis in toto regno retinuimus,’ 97; vágrek and reki (q. v.) would then be two forms of the same word, onlv that in the Icel. law the former word is used in a more special sense]:—in law phrase, a ‘wave-wreck,’ flotsom; þat heitir v. er kemr á land, manns-lík eða vara, eða fé, eða skipviðr, Grág. ii. 387; heita láta þeir v. er minnr er fjarat frá skutstafni, Ld. 76; skip braut … í Danmörk, Danir tóku upp fé allt ok kölluðu vágrek, Fms. i. 153; of hvalreka ok vágrek, Grág. ii. 212, 359, 389, Post. (Unger) 155.
