A steep, jagged rock or rocky cliff, often part of a mountainside or coastal landscape.
From Scottish and Northern English dialect, possibly related to Old Norse 'kragg' (to caw, as a crow does) or derived from Celtic sources. The word entered broader English through Scottish literature and geography.
Crags are geographically democratic—they appear in every landscape with rock, but the word itself is most common in Scotland and Northern England, showing how regional language persists even for universal features.
