F - FÆDER
F At the end of syllables, and between two vowels, the Anglo-Saxon f is occasionally represented by u, the present English v; it is, therefore, probable that the Anglo-Saxon f in this position had the sound of our present v, as Luu, luf = lufu love; fíf five; hæuþ, hæfþ haveth; Euen, efen even. In the beginning of Anglo-Saxon words, f had the sound of the English f, as Fíf five, finger finger, finn fin, fisc fish. The Rune &f-rune; not only stands for the letter f, but for Feoh, which, in Anglo-Saxon, signifies money, wealth. v. feoh IV and RÚN. fá hostile; hostiles :-- Fá þrówiaþ bealu egeslíc the hostile shall suffer fearful evil, Exon. 31 b; Th. 98, 30; Cri. 1615; pl. nom. acc. of fáh. faag of a varying colour. v. fág. faca of spaces, Andr.
