kreißen
German
[edit]Alternative forms
[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Middle High German krīzen (“to cry aloud, shout, groan”), from Old High German *krīzan, from Proto-West Germanic *krītan, from Proto-Germanic *krītaną, *krīstaną, *krīskaną (“to cry out, shout”), from Proto-Indo-European *greyd- (“to shout”). According to Pfeifer, it comes from Proto-Indo-European *grey-, an extension of Proto-Indo-European *gerh₂- (“to cry hoarsely”), which makes it cognate with German kreischen (“to screech, scream, cry”). Cognate with Middle Low German krîten (“to cry out”), Middle Dutch crīten, krīten (“to cry, cry out”), Dutch krijsen (“to shriek, cry out”), Latin crīdāre (“to cry out, proclaim”). More at cry.
