Etymology of GRUMBLES
The word "grumbles" is derived from the Middle English word "grumbeln" which comes from the Old French word "grommeler". This French word is believed to be of Germanic origin and is related to the Old High German word "grimmōn", meaning "to mutter or murmur". Ultimately, the Germanic root can be traced back to the Proto-Indo-European base "*ghrem-", which means "to growl or make a harsh noise". Thus, the etymology of "grumbles" suggests a connection between the sound of growling or murmuring and the word's meaning of expressing discontent or dissatisfaction.
