κραδάω

Ancient Greek

Etymology

Uncertain. It is probable that this verb is a denominative, so an original meaning "swinging" may be assumed for κράδη (krádē). This fits well with the meanings "crown of a tree" and "suspension-machine". Alternatively, this verb could be a zero grade iterative, derived from a lost primary verb, with κράδη (krádē) as back-formation. The word κόρδαξ (kórdax, “kind of dance”) is unrelated. The connection with Latin cardō (“hinge”) remains hypothetical.
