Toscead betweox fadungum "Underburg"

{{englisc}}

<!--

(The form of the word may tempt one to think that "suburb" was originally a shortened form of the adjective "sub-urban," but the very thorough histories of English words found in the [[Oxford English Dictionary]] appear to indicate otherwise. That [[dictionary]] quotes a book published in [[1433]] thus: ''"Not ferre out of the toun In a subarbe callyd Rysbygate."'')
