Etimoloji
() A loan from Old Norse víkingr. Already in Old English as wícing and Old Frisian witsing, wising, but extinct in Middle English and loaned anew in the 19th century. Old Norse víking (“marauding”, “piracy”)) itself is from Old Norse vík (“inlet”, “cove”, “fjord”) + -ing (“one belonging to”, “one who frequents”) (the -r is the nominative desinence).
Thus, “one from or who frequents the sea’s inlets”, The Old English or Anglo-Frisian form, existing therein since at least the eighth century), could also have been derived from or influenced by Old English wíc (“camp”), on account of the temporary encampments which were often a prominent feature of the Vikings’ raids.
