Löggra

Meaning of Old Norse word "löggra" (or lǫggra)

As defined by the Cleasby & Vigfusson Old Norse to English dictionary:

löggra (lǫggra)

að, [prob. from lögg; Dan. logre = to wag the tail, of a dog]:—to crouch abjectly, like a dog; hvat er þat it litla er ek löggra sék, ok snapvíst snapir, Ls. 44, a α-dasia-oxia;π. λεγ.

Orthography: The Cleasby & Vigfusson book used letter ö to represent the original Old Norse vowel ǫ. Therefore, löggra may be more accurately written as lǫggra.
