κροῦμαιsnot
verbWeak class 2to snore, roarApparently from a Proto-Indo-European *krut-neh₂-, from a root *krewt- (‘to snore, roar’) with no certain cognates outside of Germanic. The connection with lexicographically attested Ancient Greek κροῦμαι (kroûmai, ‘snot’) is dubious. More likely, per Orel, to be an onomatopoeic formation within Germanic (though he only notes this for the derivative *hrūtaną).
