Any Swedish persons here?

What is the etymology of the word "Orust", or at the very least its translation into English. I found nothing online.
>>
>>7783160
Orust is an island in western Sweden.
>>
It has no translation, it is a name.
>>
>>7783165
Did I ask "What does the word 'Orust' name?"? No, I didn't.

Learn to read.
>>
>>7783169
The etymology then.

>>7783160

Different anon here.

Here you go, you fucking imbecille.

Orust, önamn, fno. OrÖnst, Ordost;
Sannol. till isl. urö, no. urd, ur, or, sv.
dial. or, stenfylld terräng; se förf. Göteb.
Aftonbl. 31. 7. 09, Lindroth Bohusläns
härads- o. sockenn. s. 26; annorlunda H.
Pipping NoB 8: 34. Senare leden är
oviss; snarast att sammanställa med
fno. önamnet Ösl(r); se M. Oisen MoM
1919, s. 92; annorlunda Lindroth anf.
arb.

I vissa enskilda fall har betydelsen av ett efterled inte heller kunnat fastställas eller endast kunnat begripas med vissa tveksamheter på grund av att jämförelse endast förelegat med ett ord på fornengelska etc. Det gäller till exempel efterledet -ust i ortnamnet Orust och förledet Vad i ortnamnet Vadstena, vilka antas syfta på ett fornsvenskt och fornnorskt idag försvunnet vazt/vozt, med motsvarighet i fornengelskan med betydelsen fiskeplats. Samma betydelse föreligger också sannolikt hos efterledet i ortnamnet Alvastra, som då betyder "ål-fiskeplats". Efterledet utgörs då av varianten -vazter (synonym till vazt på samma sätt som holm/holme förhåller sig till varandra) i den plurala formen -vaztra (pluralis genitiv). Pluralformen är vanlig hos ortnamn.[3]

Basically it is hard to pin point. It is from an old norse word.

Ö (Island) + rust (place for fishing).

You fucking mongrel, you could not google this yourself?

Delete the thread OP. there's no reason for it to still be up.
>>
>>7785517
No, there is no reason to delete it. Why the fuck would someone delete his thread just because his question was answered?
>>
>>7786649
Why wouldn't you?
>>
>>7783160
Who is this cum bum?
>>
>>7786740
No, the question is why would you?
>>
>>7786784
If it doesn't serve a purpose it just dilutes the board.

>>7786865
You're an idiot.
