Etimologie (Engels)

Geërf van Middle Dutch: croes

Verwante met Persies: گرس

In summary

From Middle Dutch croes, ultimately from the root of kroezen (“to be tightly curled”), from Proto-Germanic *kruzlǭ (“bent or crooked object, curl”), possibly from Pre-Germanic *grus-, contracted from Proto-Indo-European *gurus- (“twist, curl”), same source as Persian گرس (gors, “braid of hair”).
