Etymologia (Angielski)

From Middle High German vrume (“efficient, good, righteous”), derived from Old High German fruma (“benefit”).
The vocalism -o- could readily be explained as dialectal, but is already common in Middle High German. The commonest form in early modern German was frōm. Modern fromm is a variant with suppression of open-syllable lengthening (as commonly found before -m-). Related to Dutch vroom and Yiddish פֿרום (frum).
