Interesting; in German, there is the word Kaufmann ("buy-man"/ merchant, trader, ). Even more interesting is pen(n)ingr ; Quite close to the German "Pfennig" , that used to be the 100th part of a "Deutsche Mark".

Johan Petur Klüver Dam

Modern Faroese: (at) keypa - [t͡ʃʰɛiːpa] - eg keypi - [t͡ʃʰɛiːpɪ] - eg keypti - [t͡ʃʰɛʰptɪ] (at) selja - [sɛlja] ~ [sɛʎ:a] - eg selji - [sɛljɪ] ~ [sɛʎ:ɪ] - eg seldi - [sɛltɪ] mørk - [mœɹ̥k] - merkur - [mɛɹ̥kʊɹ] oyra [n,] - [ɔiɹa] - oyru(r) - [ɔiɹʊ(ɹ)] peningur (means money) [pʰeːnɪŋkʊɹ] vøra [vø:ɹa] keypmaður [tʃʰɛʰpːmɛaːvʊɹ] Keypmannahavn [tʃʰɛʰpːmanːahavn] Mørk has in modern times had different subdivisions, so one mørk is the equivalent of 16 gyllin [tʃɪdlɪn] and a gyllin is the equivalent of 20 skinn [ʃɪn:]. Don't think I left anything out.
