Meaning & usage

Where this word comes from
Inherited from Old Norse bjarmalandsferð (“journey to Bjarmaland”), from Bjarmaland (“Bjarmaland”) + ferð (“journey, expedition”). The place name Bjarmaland is formed from bjarmar (“Bjarmians”) and land (“land”); the ethnonym is probably derived from a Finnic name. By surface analysis, Bjarmeland (“Bjarmaland”) + ferd (“journey, expedition”). Compare Norwegian Nynorsk bjarmelandsferd, Icelandic Bjarmalandsferð and Bjarmalandsför (“expedition to Bjarmaland; dangerous journey”), and Danish bjarmelandsfærd (“expedition to Bjarmaland”).
