Analysis: Viking (Viking) is the Viking is the Viking, they from the 8th century to the 11th century AD has been invading the coast of Europe and the British islands, its footprints throughout the European continent to the Arctic vast territory, this period in Europe is called the "Viking Age", in English, the word is introduced from the legend of the 18th century, there is a theory that it may be ** in the language of the ancient Norse, "vik" means "bay", "ing" means "from ......"."Viking" means to do something in the bay, and "vikingr" is a person who does something in the bay. Another theory is that the Old English word "wíc" means "city", because later some Vikings settled on the British Isles and had a relationship with the locals.

The word "vikingr" once appeared on ancient Juniven steles in Scandinavia, and also means "sea adventure" in Icelandic vernacular. The word "wicing" first appeared in ancient Anglo-Saxon poetry in the 6th century to mean pirate, but the British did not refer to Vikings as Vikings at the time. The word "Viking" disappeared in Middle English, but reappeared in the saga in the 18th century, and by the 20th century, the meaning of "Viking" was expanded to refer to not only pirates, but also to refer to Scandinavians, and many new words appeared, such as:

Viking Age", "Viking Culture", "Viking Colony", etc.

Since the Scandinavians later engaged in commerce along the rivers of Russia until the Byzantine Empire and established colonies along the rivers, the merchants from Scandinavia were later called Vikings, and the Scandinavians of North America were also called Vikings by English-speaking people. In fact, not all Scandinavians were pirates, they were farmers, fishermen, and hunters like Europeans in other regions, and they also formed fleets to prevent pirate invasions, and it would be confusing to refer to all Scandinavians as Vikings.
