jötnar tröll þursar cannot all be translated into English as giants, as their functions are different; giant only says: some big creature – and that is drastically inadequate.
We shall have to understand names and terms – every word and term can have multiple meanings, to give a clue on the functions of the phenomenon.
jötnar (plural) jötunn (singular; prounce: ieurd-eun) are the sweeping-up department

tröll are our ignorance of which we must rid ourselves


þursar old, now useless, lower states of consciousness, referring to our path and goal of life: evolving to perfection
þursameyjar Gerður Skaði Gunnlöð thus mean taking over from the old states on our way to enlightenment, Valhöll.
Þursameyjar take over from their fathers, þursar, as they now are passed evolutionary states, as now more evolved states have taken over for us.

These 3 þursameyjar whom I have in mind are daughters of Gymir Þjazi Suttungur, Gerður Gymisdóttir, Skaði Þjazadóttir, Gunnlöð Suttungsdóttir.
We should know that we, all of us, are on our evolutionary path towards enlightenment, Valhöll.
We are no-where taught about the purpose, the path, and the goal of human life-spans.
This counts for a drastic flaw in education.
Óðsmál is going to amend this lapsus for the good of the whole of mankind.
