Romanization edit

arfa

  1. Romanization of ᠠᡵᡶᠠ

Old Norse edit

Etymology edit

From Proto-Germanic *arbijǭ, feminine form of masculine *arbijô, whence arfi. Cognate with Gothic 𐌰𐍂𐌱𐌾𐍉 (arbjō, “heiress”), feminine form of Gothic 𐌰𐍂𐌱𐌾𐌰 (arbja, “heir”). The loss of -j- in words of this class is common but not universal; see goði (“(pagan) priest, chieftain”) with feminine form gyðja (“priestess; goddess”).
