At WT:REE, it was said that "The word is long-obsolete, and has only two cites in the OED, but I'll add it since the OED retains it." If it doesn't pass CFI, it should go to dictionary-only words. A quick search in Google Books revealed this, where fremish was used as an index into the NED (= OED 1st ed) with the actual word being fremeske.--Prosfilaes (talk) 19:03, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
- FWIW I guess it would be from Old/Middle French fremir. Mglovesfun (talk) 11:51, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
- Well I can't cite it using Google Books, and I don't know where else to look. Since it's historical, Usenet seems out of the question. Mglovesfun (talk) 20:05, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
