Talk:horkarl

RFV discussion: March 2017–May 2018
Rfv-sense "male prostitute". ContraVentum cited it with section 216 of Skånske Lov, where it may as well mean the same as in Modern Danish. §215 begins with "hittær man annær man i siangu mæþ aþulkunu sinni . ok drepær bondæn horkarl i siangu...", which I interpret as "If (one)/(a man)(?) finds another man in bed with his (noble? lawfully wedded?) wife, and if the (peasant? farmer? husband?) kills the adulterer in the bed...". However, our def of indicates that the person not involved in the marriage is not engaging in adultery, so maybe the translation needs to be changed.__Gamren (talk) 13:20, 31 March 2017 (UTC)
