grapelike

/ɡɹˈeɪplaɪk/ adj

Resembling or characteristic of a grape (the fruit, a bunch thereof, or the plant).

Word Origin Grape comes from Proto-Germanic *krappon 'hook', because grapes grow on hooked vines. Like from *līkam 'body, form'. Grapelike means resembling a grape. The root *krappon also gives us grapple, grapnel (a hooked anchor). The PIE root *grep- meant 'hook'. So grape is literally 'hook-fruit', and grapelike is 'hook-fruit-shaped'. The breakdown grape+like shows the comparison.
