There is a line
Though it may take all friggen day
in a song "My World" by Avril Lavigne, and I can't find any translation/meaning for the word "friggen". Do you know anything about this word?

@ColleenV after getting no result from google translate I went to ELL to ask this question. I'm sorry. I had to perform better search.– sanyasshAug 21, 2019 at 8:13

1@sanyash It helps us to know what you searched for and what the results were. I got results when I searched for "friggen". I'm not sure why you didn't get any.– ColleenVAug 21, 2019 at 10:57

2You should include that information in your question.– ColleenVAug 21, 2019 at 18:17

In this case, it's used as a softened version of the F-word.

1Also "frack", "fark", and "frell" depending on how much of a nerd you are.– AndrewAug 20, 2019 at 23:23

2What is “the f-word” you’re referring to? As long as it isn’t in a title and it isn’t gratuitous, vulgar words are OK to write out. It’s helpful to extract the most relevant parts of the article you’re linking to and quote it in your answer so that readers don’t have to go to another site to understand your answer. It also prevents your answer from becoming useless if the linked article changes or is removed by the other site.– ColleenVAug 21, 2019 at 18:20
