Etymology
The Modern Greek word 'κρεβάτι' meaning 'bed' is derived from the Byzantine Greek 'κρεββάτιον' (krevvátion), which in turn comes from the Latin 'crabātum'. The Latin term is believed to have been borrowed from a Gaulish or other Celtic language, where it referred to a type of bed or couch.
