FIND
O.E. findan "come upon, alight on" from P.Gmc. finthanan (cf. O.S. findan, O.N. finna, M.Du. vinden, Ger. finden, Goth. finþan ), originally "to come upon," perhaps from pent- "to go, pass, path, bridge" (cf. O.H.G. fendeo "pedestrian," Skt. panthah "path, way," Avestan panta "way," Gk. pontos "open sea," L. pons (gen. pontis ) "bridge," O.C.S. poti "path," peta "heel"). The noun meaning "person or thing discovered" is from 1890.
CREVICE
c.1340, from O.Fr. crevace, from V.L. *crepacea, from L. crepare "to crack, creak". The meaning shifted from the sound of breaking to the resulting fissure.
