Its relatives in other Germanic languages, including German kropf and Dutch krop, are used for ‘bird’s craw’ but also for various bodily swellings in the throat and elsewhere, indicating the word’s underlying meaning is ‘round mass, lump’.Its Germanic ancestor, *kruppō, was borrowed into Vulgar Latin as *cruppa, which made its way via Old French into English as croup ‘horse’s (round) rump’ [13], and as the derivative crupper [13]. Croupier [18] is based on French croupe, having originally meant ‘person who rides on the rump, behind the saddle’. The Germanic base *krup- ‘round mass, lump’ is also the ancestor of English group.=> croup, croupier, crupper, groupcrop (n.)Old English cropp "bird's craw," also "head or top of a sprout or herb."
