Le mot vieux norrois frakka peut signifier :frakka

frakka

u, f. [A. S. 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 Rm. 32, whence it was probably taken into Edda (Gl.); on the other hand, we have an Icel. frakki, a, m. a kind of weapon, in the compd hræ-f., a ‘carrion-fluke,’ i. e. the blade of a sword, Gísl. 7 (in a verse); and akkeris-frakki, a, m. an ‘anchor-fluke (?),’ in a verse of 996, FS. 92: again, the frakka of the Rm. was probably borrowed from A. S.

frakka

2. Frakki, a, m. a proper name, cp. Gullþ.; Frakka-nes, n. a farm.
