Fur forhtian; and  are wanting;  faurhtjan, ‘to fear, be afraid,’ with the  faúrhts, ‘timid,’ used as an. The dental of the, which was probably strong , is a suffix of the present stem, hence farh-tjan; the corresponding   forh-ta is formed like. To the root forh (Aryan prk?, qerk?),  querquerus, ‘shivering,’ and  καρκαίρω, ‘to tremble,’ have been allied.   ,, ‘further,’ from vürder,  furdir, , ‘further in front, further on, away’; apparently an oblique form of the  , like  faurþis, ‘formerly,’ from ,  *faurþ;  furþor, , ‘forward, further, more distantly’ ( *faúrþôs),  further. See.   ,, ‘pitchfork,’ from furke,  furcha, , ‘fork’;   vork,  and  fork; from  furca, introduced early in the  period along with Southern horticulture.   ,, ‘‘sovereign, chief, prince,’ from vürste, , ‘the highest, most distinguished, ruler, prince,’  furisto,  furisto,  vorst, ‘prince’; like , simply a  form. Just as is  a  of, so is   a superlat. meaning ‘first’;  furist,  fyrst,  first,  fyrstr;  *faúrista is wanting; the corresponding  is  furiro, ‘the former, preferable,’  fyrre, ‘former.’ The usual  and  word for ‘first’ is formo, forma, with the suffix ma ( fruma); from Aryan pṛ like  πρόμος,  pûrva-s,  prŭvŭ,  pírmas, ‘first.’ It is evident that also, , , &c., are derivatives of this Aryan root pṛ.   , (  also), ‘ford,’ from the   and  vurt, ;   *ford in Heriford ( ‘lord's ford’), ;  vord,  ford,,  ford;   Oxenaford ( ‘oxen's ford’), ‘Oxford’ (also , ). *faúrdus, ‘ford,’ is wanting. It belongs to the root far, ‘to go, march,’ and hence signifies  ‘a frequented, passable spot’;   πόρος, ‘ford,’ which has a cognate root, and βόσπορος with Oxford; also Zend peretu, ‘bridge’ (Euphrates,  ‘having many bridges’?); so too  portus, ‘port’;  fjǫrðr, m, ‘bay.’  -ritum (for *pritum) in Augustoritum, from, is also allied to this word.  ,, ‘to perform hastily, cheat,’ only, of obscure origin.  , ‘bad brandy,’ probably from chemical technology ( fusilis, ‘liquid’?).   ,, ‘foot, base, pedestal, footing,’ from the  vuoȥ,  fuoȥ, , ‘foot’; a common  and more remotely a common Aryan term for ‘foot’;   fôtus,  fótr,  fôt,  foot,  voet,  fôt. The fôt- (weak ), from Aryan pôd-, which interchanged with Aryan pŏd- and pĕd in declension. ποδ- in πόδα,  πούς ( πώς);  pĕd-em,   pes; πέδιλον, ‘sandal,’ πεζός (for πεδjός), ‘on foot’; o gradation in  tripudium;    pâd (locat. padí), ‘foot,’ padá,, ‘tread, footstep.’ The e gradation is preserved in  by  fet, , ‘step,’ but as a measure ‘foot’ ( pėdà, ‘mark of the foot’); akin to  feta, ‘to find the way,’  fëȥȥan, ‘to go.’ Respecting  fjǫturr see ;  fit, , ‘the skin of birds between the claws.’  fetlak,  fetlock; thus too  viȥȥeloch, ‘hough,’ earlier  ; they are derivatives (not compounds) of *fet-, ‘foot.’ —   ,, ‘footstep, trace,’ from ; often divided wrongly into , which would originate in a verb for. <section end="Fußstapfe" /> <section begin="Futter" /> ,, from the  vuoter,  fuotar, , ‘nourishment, food, fodder, lining, case’;   voeder,  ‘fodder, lining’;  fôdor,   fodder;  fóðr, , ‘fodder’;  fôdr, , ‘scabbard.’ Two really different words seem to have converged phonetically in this term. *fôdr, ‘nourishment,’ seems to be connected with fôda, ‘nourishment,’  food,  fôdjan,  fêdan,  to feed, and consequently with a  root fôd, fad (  fatunga, ‘nourishment, food’), from Aryan pā̆t, which also appears in  πατέομαι, ‘to eat’; likewise akin to  fôstor, ‘maintenance,’  to foster, foster-brother, &c. The second,, ‘case,’ fôdr, ‘sheath,’ has been thought to be allied to  pãtra-m, , ‘vessel, receptacle.’ The  cognates in both senses found their way into ;   and  fuerre ( feurre), ‘sheath,’ formed from  fôdr,  fuotar, ‘sheath,’  feurre, ‘straw for feeding cattle,’  fourreau, ‘case, sheath,’ &c. <section end="Futter" /> <section begin="Futteral" /> ,, ‘case, lining, sheath,’ only, from  fotrale, a derivative of  fôtar,  vuoter;. <section end="Futteral" />
