[edit]Etymology
[edit]Fraenkel notes the similarity to Proto-Germanic *hrepaz (Old Norse hrip (“box or basket”), Old High German ref, German Reff (“a wooden frame used to carry something”)), which may be cognate.
Dialectal kar̃bas, Proto-Slavic *korbъ < (?) Proto-West Germanic *korb < (?) Latin corbis may be from the same PIE root, but with an o-grade ablaut.
