Etymology

Lua error: Module:checkparams:215: The template Template:PIE root does not use the parameter(s):

2=kʷreyh₂

Please see Module:checkparams for help with this warning.

(deprecated template usage) From Proto-Indo-Iranian *krináHti, from Proto-Indo-European *kʷrinéh₂ti, from *kʷreyh₂-. Cognate with Manichaean Middle Persian xryn (to buy), Old Irish crenaid, Old Church Slavonic крьнути (krĭnuti), Ancient Greek ἐπριάμην (epriámēn).[1] The long ī is unexpected and metrically represents kriṇā́ti with short i.
