frogess

Where it comes from

From frog + -ess.

noun frogesses · froggess

  1. A female frog (amphibian). The night was warm, the pool was still, / No sound was heard from lake or hill, / Save where, upon a log decayed, / A bull-frog croaked his serenade: / Wake, frogess of my love, awake, / And listen to my song; / The heron roosts far from the lake, / The pickerel his rest doth take / The water-weeds
  2. offensive, rare A Frenchwoman. Do Frogs like children? I am not terribly convinced they do. Before I get pelted with tomatoes by indignant Frogesses, could I simply ask you to draw your own conclusion from the large number of abusive terms used to describe children? Our “brats” is nothing compared with the variety of French names
