Etymology

The word 'frank' has its origins in the Latin term 'Francus,' referring to the Franks, a Germanic tribe that settled in what is now France. This tribe was known for their openness and directness, characteristics that carried over into the language. The term evolved in Middle English as 'frank,' meaning free or open, specifically referring to a certain freedom of expression. Over time, this evolved into the modern usage, where 'frank' signifies honesty and candor in communication. The superlative form, 'frankest,' emerged in the 19th century, encapsulating the idea of being the most straightforward and transparent among a group or in discussion.
