Swedish word?

[edit]

In the article it says: "'Fpr' a common synonym of the Swedish word 'får'." But, when I go to http://google.com/translate and put in "får," I get at least 2 translations:

For which of these 2 is "Fpr" a synonym? (If I enter "Fpr" into the translator, it simply translates to the acronym "FPR," which is not all that helpful.) 71.114.77.97 (talk) 00:14, 28 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Abbreviation

[edit]

FPR is an abbreviation for Fountain Pen Revolution. Fountain Pen Revolution LLC is a US based limited liability company. Located in Plano, TX. the company was founded by Kevin Thiemann. Kevin relates, "My interest in fountain pens began with a desire to improve my poor penmanship. This pursuit led me to buy my very first fountain pen in the year 2009. I fell in love instantly and decided I would like to have more quality pens but was discouraged by the high price tags. This led me on a quest for high quality low cost pens. I was working in India at the time and, as fate would have it, discovered the world of Indian-made pens. In addition to buying these fountain pens for myself I started to sell them to other collectors and pen enthusiasts. And thus, Fountain Pen Revolution was born." Eventually, they began partnering with Indian fountain pen manufacturers to construct pens and nibs to their own specifications so they can offer great pens at a great price to fountain pen lovers around the world.
