Where this word comes from

From kleppfisk, via Low German klippfisch, which is a compound that would be cognate with modern standard German Klippe (“[cliff] rocks”) + Fisch (“fish”) if that compound were to exist in that language; the name comes from the fact that the fish were laid out on the rocks of sea coasts for drying and salting; compare with Dutch klipvis and Faroese klippfiskur.
