Original entry ↗A royal, imperial or princely headdress; a diadem. · A wreath or band for the head, especially one given as reward of victory or a mark of honor. · Any reward of victory or mark of honor. · Imperial or regal power, or those who wield it.
Inherited from Middle English coroune, from Anglo-Norman corone, from Latin corōna (“crown, wreath”), from Ancient Greek κορώνη (korṓnē). Doublet of corona, korona, koruna, krona, króna, and krone. Displaced Old English corenbēag (“crown”) and Middle English kinehelm, kynehelm, from Old English cynehelm (“crown”, literally “kinhelm” or “king's helm”). The paper sizes (etymology 1, noun sense 18) are so called because the papers were originally watermarked with a crown.
