Talk:kaross

Kaross is probably either a genuine Khoisan word, or else an adaptation of the Dutch kuras (Portuguese couraca), (Fr. cuirasse, Lat. coriaceus, made of leather, from corium, the original breastplate being of leather). I personally believe it to be the Khoisan word.Andrew massyn 21:35, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Linguistically, "Koisan" doesn't mean anything. If you don't know which language the word came from, then you can't demonstrate it came from that language. 207.192.243.66 17:40, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
