|etymtx=Grammatical information: m.<br />Meaning: <b class="b2">overhanging bank</b> (Il.).<br />Compounds: Often as 2. member, e.g. <b class="b3">ἀπό-κρημνος</b> [[inclined]], [[steep]] (IA.), <b class="b3">βαθύ-κρημνος</b> <b class="b2">with steep inclination</b> (Pi.); extens. Strömberg Greek Preflx Studies 34 ff.; rarely as 1. member, e.g. <b class="b3">κρημνο-φοβέομαι</b> <b class="b2">be afraid of inclinations</b> (Hp.).<br />Derivatives: <b class="b3">κρημνώδης</b> [[slanting]] (Th.); (<b class="b3">κατα-</b> etc.) <b class="b3">κρημνίζω</b> <b class="b2">have a strong inclination</b> (Att. etc.), with <b class="b3">-ισμός</b>, <b class="b3">-ισις</b> (late).<br />Origin: XX [etym. unknown]<br />Etymology: Traditionally considered as an old verbal noun to <b class="b3">κρεμάννυμι</b> (s. v.) with ablaut <b class="b3">κρημ-</b> : <b class="b3">κρεμα-</b>; but this is impossible if the root was <b class="b2">*kremh₂-</b> (zero grade <b class="b2">*kr̥mh₂-</b> would give <b class="b3">*κραμα-</b>). DELG notes that the [[e]] is proven by Pindar, which makes the case even worse: with <b class="b2">h₂</b> we can never get [[e]]. This recalls that there is no evidence for this root outside Greek. This reminds us that there is no explanation of <b class="b3">κρίμνημι</b>. Was there an old adj. <b class="b3">*κριμνος</b> [[slanting]]? Or was <b class="b3">κρίμνημι</b> just due to <b class="b3">κίρνημι</b>? The present <b class="b3">κρήμνημι</b> is rather influenced by <b class="b3">κρημνός</b> than the other way round. So the form is unexplained.
