Fromward

/ˈfrɑmwərd/ adverb

Definition

Archaic or obsolete directional adverb meaning 'away' or 'in a direction away from something.'

Etymology

From 'from' + '-ward' (Old English suffix meaning direction, from 'weard' meaning turned toward). This construction parallels other directional adverbs like 'forward', 'backward', and 'toward'.

Kelly Says

English used to make tons of direction words by adding '-ward' to prepositions—'fromward' follows the same pattern as 'upward' or 'outward,' but it never really caught on and fell out of use.
