Luxembourgish
Etymology
From Middle High German *vreden, northern form of vret(t)en, vraten, from Old High German *fretten, fratōn (“to chafe, rub”), derived from frat (“sore”). Cognate with dialectal German fretten. Further origin unknown. The word cannot be immediately cognate with English fret, which instead corresponds to Luxembourgish friessen. Origin from a derivative of Latin fricāre (cf. Italian frettare) is also unlikely because of the underlying a-vocalism.
