Proto-Indo-European[edit]

Etymology[edit]

Potentially a collective derivation in *-h₂ from *ḱer- (to grow),[1] of which the original root noun may be fossilized in Latin crās.[2] A possible loan relation with Proto-Semitic *ḳarn- (horn) has also been suggested. However, it is probably unrelated to Old Chinese (*kraːɡ, antler) and (*kʷraːŋ, drinking vessel made of animal horn) despite the phonological and semantic resemblance between the three.

Root[edit]

*ḱerh₂-

  1. head, top
  2. horn
