reek = smoke in West Frisian
The words “smoke” in three Frisian languages have the letter “r” at the beginning and the letter “k” at the end. In the middle they have different doubled vowels.
reek in West Frisian
riik in North Frisian
Rook in Saterland Frisian
All three are cognates of the English word “reek” (strong unpleasant smel).
