Mistranslation on the translation that includes constructed cognates?[edit]
They seem to interpret fremedon as a plural of "freme" (meaning profit) when in actuality, fremedon is the plural to "fremman" (meaning perform or commit). The fremmen interpretation is much more accurate in context. https://bosworthtoller.com/12260Vulturevalentines (talk) 07:12, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Vulturevalentines: The current interpretation is a verb ("promote"), but if you think it isn't very accurate, you certainly can rephrase it. — Eru·tuon 19:08, 11 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The article's title image is showing up as the Israeli flag for me. I'm not confident editing the page itself, and when I went to edit it described the image as something from Beowulf. Is this a glitch in my mobile app, or something that needs changing? Cheers. 109.180.83.49 (talk) 06:42, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There was some similar vandalism mentioned on the Helpdesk yesterday. I don't see the flag, so you could try a null edit to refresh your version of the page. TSventon (talk) 08:02, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
