"etymology_text": "From earlier *grenz-, from Proto-Baltic *grenž-, from Proto-Indo-European *grenǵ-, from the zero grade of Proto-Indo-European *ger- (“to turn; to wind; to wreathe”) with an extra ǵ and an infix -n-. A minority opinion considers griezt (“to turn”) to have the same origin as griezt (“to cut”) (see below), with the circular motion meaning coming from certain ways of cutting. Cognates include Lithuanian grę̃žti (“to drill, to turn, to change, to mend”), Old Prussian granstis (“one who drills, who drilled”), greanste ([grēnste], “rope made of woven, wound branches”), Old Norse kringr (“ring”), kringla (“ring, circle”), kranga (“to crawl, to creep, to drag oneself”), German Kringel (“loop, curl, squiggle”), Dutch krinkel (“loop; twist”).",

"etymology_text": "From earlier *grenz-, from Proto-Baltic *grenž-, from Proto-Indo-European *grenǵ-, from the zero grade of Proto-Indo-European *ger- (“to turn; to wind; to wreathe”) with an extra ǵ and an infix -n-. A minority opinion considers griezt (“to turn”) to have the same origin as griezt (“to cut”) (see below), with the circular motion meaning coming from certain ways of cutting. Cognates include Lithuanian grę̃žti (“to drill, to turn, to change, to mend”), Old Prussian granstis (“one who drills, who drilled”), greanste ([grēnste], “rope made of woven, wound branches”), Old Norse kringr (“ring”), kringla (“ring, circle”), kranga (“to crawl, to creep, to drag oneself”), German Kringel (“loop, curl, squiggle”), Dutch krinkel (“loop; twist”).",
