Etymology

The word 'franker' is derived from the Middle English word 'frank', which signifies free or free-born. Its roots can be traced back to the late 13th century and are linked to the Old French 'franc', meaning free or open. The term has evolved through the centuries to convey not just the idea of being free, but also the openness associated with the absence of restraint in speech or action. In modern usage, 'franker' is commonly employed to describe an attitude or behavior that is more straightforward and transparent. The implication of frankness often relates to social interactions, where being frank is both a virtue and a potential issue, depending on the context.
