Etymology[edit]
From Old Norse skjaðak n, from Old Irish sceïd, from Proto-Celtic *skeyeti (“to vomit”). [2]
Contaminated by skjera and aks. Cognate with Icelandic skjaðak and Swedish skäde.
Alternatively, from skjera + aks "a cutting grain ear", not related to the dialectal skjerak (with the same meaning, but from Old Norse skjaðak).
Noun[edit]
skjæraks n (definite singular skjærakset, indefinite plural skjæraks, definite plural skjæraksa)
