Inherited from Middle English grape, borrowed from Old French grappe (“cluster of fruit or flowers, bunch of grapes”), deverbal from graper (“to pick grapes”, literally “to hook”), borrowed from Frankish *krappō (“to hook”), from Proto-Indo-European *greb- (“hook”) or *gremb- (“crooked, uneven”), from *ger- (“to turn, bend, twist”) Displaced Old English wīnberġe (“grape”, literally “wine-berry”). Cognate with Middle Dutch krappe (“hook”), Old High German krapfo (“hook”) (whence German Krapfen (“Berliner doughnut”). Doublet of grappa. More at cramp.
