References
  • Jocz, Lechosław:
    IE cognacy and the IE root are uncertain. A contamination of ultimately distinct etymona is possible.
  • Rejzek, Jiří: 216
    The lexeme is a Slavic innovation and does not have any certain cognates. It can be related to Lithuanian granda 'roughly hewed plank' and Latin grunda 'roof' from PIE *gʰrondʰ-.
  • Schuster-Šewc, H.: 353
    It is related to Latin grandis 'big, great', Armenian argand 'bay', Greek βρένθος 'pride'. It is derived from PIE [*gʷrendʰ-], a nasalized variant of PIE *[*gʷreu̯dʰ-].
  • Snoj, Marko:
    The etymology of PS *grǫdĭ is not entirely clear. It is maybe derived from PIE *gʷrendʰ- 'swell, become big' and related to Latin grandis 'big' and Greek βρένθος 'pride'.
  • Trubačev, O. N.: 7: 146-149
    PS grǫdĭ is a Slavic lexico-semantic innovation without further IE parallels. It is related to PS *grǫda / *gruda / *grǫdŭ / *grudŭ 'clod, clomp, chunk' and further to PS *grǫbŭ / *grubŭ 'rugged, rough, raw, thick' [that is ultimately derived from PIE *gʰreu̯-]. IE cognates are: Old Icelandic grjót 'stones', German Gries 'sand, gravel', Lithuanian grū́das 'corn', grúodas 'frozen earth', German groß 'big', English great.
  • Vasmer, Max: 1: 463
    The Slavic lexeme is related to Latin grandis 'great' and Greek βρένθος 'pride'.
