Declension
editEtymology 2
editFrom Old Norse hrífa (“to grip, snatch”), from Proto-Germanic *hrībaną (“to grip, snatch”), from Proto-Indo-European *(s)kreybʰ- (“to scratch”). Has become conflated with Proto-Germanic *rīfaną, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁reyp- (“to tear”), in each subsequent daughter language, cf. Old English gehrīfnian (“to become fierce, rapacious”) and Old Frisian hrīva (“to tear”). Ultimately the sense is 'to make an impression on'.

- to enchant, to carry away, to move someone [intransitive or with accusative]
