English meaning : to deceive
Russian meaning[s]: 1) поддельный, ложный, фальшивый; притворный; прикидываться, притворяться; 2) заимствовать; занимать; 3) прикидывать; предполагать; условный; если предположим...; [jià] досуг; отдых; отпуск, каникулы
Comments: Used also for the homonymous *krāʔ 'be great'; sometimes glossed as 'to come, go', but, as Schüssler supposes, this may be a lexicographic ghost and the graph might have been intended as a loan for *krāk 格 q.v.
