Etymologie

[ 'kran-"ber-E, -b(&-)rE ] (noun.) 1647. From Low German Kraanbere (“crane berry”), from Kraan (“crane”) + Bere (“berry”). Kraan is cognate to crane, while Bere is cognate to berry. The bound morpheme cran- (cran- + berry) occurs only in this word, and this is used as an archetype, hence the term cranberry morpheme for such a morpheme.
