kostra
See also: Kostra
Czech
[edit]
Etymology
[edit]Coined by Jan Svatopluk Presl in the 19th century.[1][2]
Králik explains the word as a coinage modeled on other Slavic languages, where formally similar terms occur but with different meanings (cf. Russian костёр (kostjór), костра (kostra), Polish kostra), which are derived from Proto-Slavic *kostra, ultimately from Proto-Slavic *kostь (“bone”).[2]
Both Králik and Rejzek additionally connect the formation with Proto-Indo-European *kes- (“to comb”), based on the semantics attested in the other Slavic languages.[2][1]
Pronunciation
[edit]Noun
[edit]kostra f (relational adjective kosterní or kostrový, diminutive kostřička)
- skeleton (the system that provides support to an organism, internal and made up of bones and cartilage in vertebrates, external in some other animals)
