Where this word comes from

From Middle Welsh creuyð, from Proto-Brythonic *krọβ(ɨð) (with vowel altered after unrelated credu), from Proto-Celtic *krāb- (“devotion, religious practice”), of unknown origin (compare Old Irish crábud from the variant *krāb-V-tos). Pokorny compares Sanskrit श्रम्भते (śrambhate, “to trust”) and constructs a Proto-Indo-European *ḱrebʰ- (“to trust”), but Matasović calls this "formally extremely difficult" due to the lengthened grade in Celtic.
