Origin: IE [Indo-European] [945] * krei-`separate, distinguish'

Etymology: The present κρί̄νω from *κρῐν-ι̯ω (unlessinnovated to the aorist κρῖναι; Schwyzer 694) has a nasal suffix, which originally belonged only to the present, but was later extended; as in κλί̄νω. - To the nasal present Latin and Celtic have agreements in cer-n-ō `select, discern' (\< *krĭ-n-ō), Welsh go-grynu `sieve' (\< IE. *upo-krĭ-n-ō). Also the verbal adj. κριτός has a direct agreement in Lat. certus `decided, certain'; further the languages behave diff.: the lengthened grade in ( dē)crē-v-ī, ex-crē-mentum `separation' perh. in the isolated κρησέρα `feines Sieb' (s. v.; improbable). The Greek paradigm results from large-scale levelling; only Att. κρῖμα for older κρεῖμα (after κρί̄νω, κρῖναι) = Lat. dis-crī-men still has the full grade preserved (Wackernagel Unt. 76 n. 1, Rodriguez Adrados Emerita 16, 133 ff.). - The numerous nominal formations, esp. in Latin, Celtic and Germanic (e. g. Lat. crībrum `sieve', Germ., e.g. Goth. hrains `pure', prop. `sieved'), learn nothing for Greek. Details in Pok. 946, W.-Hofmann and Ernout-Meillet s. cernō.
