† gruen.¹

Forms: Also Middle English grwe, Middle English grew, Middle English, 1800s Scottish gru.

Etymology: Commonly taken to be < Old French gru meal, grain (see gruel n.); but there is no trace in Old French of the sense ‘particle’. The phrase ‘not a grue’ has a curious resemblance to the Greek οὐδὲ γρῦ , adopted by the Latin comedians as ne gry quidem (see gry n.); but it is difficult to see how this could have come into Middle English and modern Scots use.

Obsolete.

With negatives: not a (one) grue, no grue: not an atom, not a whit.
