/ˈkuːro/, [ˈkuːro̞]
AlkuperäUncertain. Somehow related to dialectal kuurne, Estonian kurt, Karelian kuurnis, Ludian kuurniž, Veps kurdiž and Võro kurt', but the morphology is unclear, and no single form can be reconstructed. Has been considered a Baltic borrowing (compare Latvian kurls (“deaf”) and Lithuanian kurtus, kurčias), but this is likewise uncertain.
- deaf (unable to hear)
- deaf (unwilling to listen or be persuaded)
- deaf person
- rain shower, shower
