GATEFARRIN, adj. wayfaring, in the sense of fit to travel, in

    distinguishes rightly between the O.N. and the Eng. use of the
    word fare.  This Scand. use of the word is confined to Norway
    and Iceland, and is, at any rate in the later period, more
    characteristic of Icelandic than Norse.  Cp. a similar use of
    the word sitta, in Norse, to look well, said of clothes that
    look well on a person.  Not quite the same.
