1 γρῡμέα
γρῡμέα, γρῡ́τηGrammatical information: f.Meaning: `bag or chest for old clothes' (Com., Phld.). γρύτη f. `trash, trumpery, woman's dressing-case, vanity-bag, frippery' (Sapph., pap.); `small fry' (Gp.)Derivatives: γρυτάριον dimin. (Zen., pap.); γρυτεύεται παρασκευάζεται H.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Prob. in origin small things of little value, later the chest etc. The formation of γρυμέα, - αία, - εία is rare; together with the variation it suggests a non-Greek (= Pre-Greek formation) s. Beekes, Pre-Greek suff. - αι\/ ε(ι)-. With γρύτη cf. κίστη(?). Perhaps to γρῦ as `something small'. The comparison with Lat. grūmus `heap of earth, hillock' is less convincing; better is that with OE. cruma `crumb', but still very doubtful. - From γρυμέα prob. Lat. crumīna `bag, purse'; s. Pfister IF 56, 200ff. Thus γρύτη may be the source of Lat. scrūta n. pl. `trash, frippery'.Page in Frisk: 1,329Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > γρῡμέα
