κρῑόςGrammatical information: m.Meaning: `ram' (Od.; on the meaning as opposed to ἀρνειός Benveniste BSL 45, 103), often metaph., esp. = `battering ram' (X., Plb., hell. inscr.); also name of a plant, `kind of chickpea' (Thphr., hell. pap., Dsc.; s. below), and a sea-monster (Ael., Opp.; Strömberg Fischnamen 102).Compounds: Compp., e.g. κριο-πρόσωπος `with a ram's face' (Hdt.), ἀντί-κριος `enemy batt. ram' (Aen. Tact.).Derivatives: κριώδης `ram-like' (Ph.); κρίωμα `kind of ship' (Aq.), also `batt. ram' (Apollod. Poliorc.?);Origin: XX [etym. unknown]Etymology: On the formation Chantraine Formation 187. Generally as *κρῑ-Ϝός connected with κέρας `horn', but this is impossible because of the laryngeal (*ḱerh₂-). Connection was sought esp. with the Germanic name of the reindeer, OWNo. hreinn, OE hrān (IE *ḱroi-no-) (Persson Beitr. 2, 774; 891; 910 and Specht Ursprung 127 a. 138). Formally closer are some Balto-Slavic words for `curb etc.', e.g. ORuss. Csl. krivъ ' σκολιός', Lith. kreĩvas, Eastlith. kraĩvas `oblique, curbed, bent' (cf. on κροιός); the ram would then have been called after his crooked horns. - As name of a kind of chickpea κριός has nothing to do with Lat. cicer (Bq, Pok. 598); the plant has rather its name from its curbed shells, s. Strömberg Theophrastea 50. - Forssman, IF 101 (1996) 304 suggests connection with Goth. hrisjan `shake, dally', from * kris-.Page in Frisk: 2,21-22Greek-English etymological dictionary (Ελληνικά-Αγγλικά ετυμολογική λεξικό) > κρῑός
