fream |
| 释义 |
▪ I. † fream, n. Obs.—0
‘Arable land worn out of heart, and laid fallow till it recover’ (Phillips 1671).
Phillips appends this definition to his explanation of Freameth (see next); Kersey 1706 refers it, prob. rightly, to Fream. The word is otherwise unknown.
▪ II. fream, v.|friːm|
Also 6 (? erron.) froam.
[Of uncertain origin.
Perh. an artificial term suggested by L. fremĕre to roar (F. frémir, to shudder, is too remote in sense). But quot. 1876 suggests that it may, with unexplained irregularity, represent OAngl. hréma = WS. hríeman, to cry out.]
intr. To roar, rage, growl: spec. of a boar.
