Proto-Slavic

[edit]
*karasь (Carassius carassius)

Etymology

[edit]

Akin to Lithuanian karõsas, Old High German karaz (whence Modern German Karausche, dialectal Lithuanian karúšis and Norwegian Nynorsk karuss), of unclear further origin. Kluge & Mitzka presume Balto-Slavic origin for the German descendant; reversely, Preobražensky considers the Balto-Slavic lemmas as Germanic borrowings; while Sławski and Holub & Kopečný suppose a shared substrate origin.

Compared in the past with Ancient Greek κορᾰκῖνος (korakînos, fresh-water fish found in the Nile), κορακώδης (korakṓdēs, crucian) (literally: raven-like).

Noun

[edit]

*karasь m

  1. crucian carp (Carassius carassius); any fish of the genus Carassius
