Etymology
From Old Swedish ondsko fulder, equivalent to ondska (“evil”) + -e- + -full (“-ful”) ("full of evil").

Usage notes
Mostly synonymous with ond (“evil”) as expected from "full of evil." Sometimes sounds better when something is indicative of evil rather than being an evil being in itself, like an evil plan or an evil laugh.
