Nguồn gốc từ

From Middle English crome, cromme, crumme, crume, from Old English cruma (crumb, fragment), from Proto-Germanic *krumô, *krūmô (fragment, crumb). The b is unetymological, as in limb, and first appeared in the mid-15th century, influenced by crumble and words such as dumb, numb, and thumb.
