Etymology
From, from Old French +. Alternatively it may be from faux-bourg ("false borough") which isn't attested until the 15th century (later than fors bourg) but is found in 1380 in Latin as falsus burgus. Possibly a corruption of (also spelt falborgere) as in a person living outside the city walls but inside the palisades. An 18th century French translation of an Old French charter of 1365 speaks of 'des faux bourgeois dits en allemand Pfalbourguers' which evidences the possibility it evolved from phalburgensis or a corrupt translation faux bourgeois.
