Frengermy

Derived from the album of Danish band Mew entitled 'Frengers'. A portmanteau of 'friend' and 'stranger', meaning a person who is "not quite a friend but not quite a stranger". The origin of the word remains with the band. Frengermy (singular) or frengermies (plural) is an extrapolation of the aforementioned word which adds the word 'enemy' to the portmanteau meaning: 'not quite a friend, not quite a stranger and quite possibly also an enemy'. The word is used to evoke a certain level of ambivalence and confusion arising from fleeting and underdeveloped relationships usually brought on by fast-paced contemporary inner city living and stunted communication brought about digital mediation (such as the internet and text messaging) manifested most frequently in social networking websites.
