Usage notes edit
Interestingly, this noun - which is more marginal in other Germanic languages - is by far the most common word for father in the attested Gothic texts. The synonym ๐๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฐ๐ (fadar) (the cognates of which dominate other Germanic languages) occurs only once in the entire corpus (versus several hundred occurrences of ๐ฐ๐๐๐ฐ).
