Definition: The word "forfarsh" originally referred to the name given by a king to his daughter who was about 10 years old. It's often used as an adjective meaning "of great worth or importance" in modern English. Forfarshire is a large area, roughly equivalent to Scotland's north-east and west coast. It lies between the Scottish borders and the border of England in the North Sea (the Forfar sea). The area includes the towns of Forfar, Stirling and Fort William, which are also important places of historical interest.
