Etymology

A short form of frue (“mistress, lady, wife”). Titles tend to be shortened in a pretonic position in Danish, compare herre > hr. (“Mr.”), konge > kong (“King ...”), greve > grev (“Count ...”).

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): /fru/, [?f??u], [?f??o]

Noun

fru (abbreviated fr., uninflected)

1. (title) Mrs

Usage notes

• Used prefixed with a personal name, e.g. Kender De fru Pedersen? (Do you know Mrs Pedersen?").
• It is now used regardless of the marital status of the person, though frøken (“Ms.”) was earlier used when referring to an unmarried woman. In the present Danish language, it is unusual to refer to another person with a title and the last name, even in formal contexts.
