=====Descendants=====
* {{descdesctree|enenm|foefo|id=adjective}}
 
===Etymology 2===
From {{inh|ang|gmw-pro|*faih|id=coloured}}, from {{inh|ang|gem-pro|*faihaz|id=coloured}}, from {{inh|ang|ine-pro|*póyḱos}}.; Cognatecognate with {{cog|goh|fēh}}, {{cog|got|𐍆𐌰𐌹𐌷𐍃}}. The Proto-Indo-European root is also the source of {{cog|grc|ποικίλος|t=multicoloured}}.
 
The inflected stem ''fāg-'' may be because this word ultimately reflects a Proto-Germanic variant {{m|gem-pro||*faigaz}}; alternatively, it may be due to analogy with other adjectives with an alternation between {{IPAchar|[x]}} and {{IPAchar|[ɣ]}}, such as {{m|ang|smēag}}, {{m|ang|smēah|t=creeping, subtle}}.
