Etymology

Formally from Proto-Germanic *argį̄. Proto-Norse ᛡᚱᛡᚷᛖᚢ (ᴀrᴀgeu /⁠arᵃgju⁠/) (dative/instrumental singular) appears to be a jōn-stem noun, but may still be ancestral to ergi if the declension were irregularly changed. By surface analysis, argr (effeminate, shameful, homosexual) +‎ -i (-ness, abstract noun suffix).

Noun

ergi f (genitive ergi)

  1. the state of being argr; variously translated as lewdness, perversity, effeminacydegeneracy
