A type of fish or an archaic term referring to a young or small creature.
From Old Norse 'brotr' or Middle English dialect meaning a small animal or young thing. The term is largely obsolete in modern usage.
Some of the smallest Old English words have the biggest histories—'brott' appears in medieval texts where people needed different words for different sizes of the same animal.
