frequēns
frequēns
From Proto-Italic *frekʷents, likely from Proto-Indo-European *bʰrekʷ- (“to stuff”), cognate with fraxō (“I patrol”). Alternatively, possibly associated with farciō (“I cram, stuff”), Ancient Greek φράσσω (phrássō, “I fence in, block”), and Proto-Indo-European *bʰerǵʰ- (“high”), compare English berg.
