Cornishadj.²n.

Brit.

/ˈkɔːnɪʃ/, U.S.

/ˈkɔrnɪʃ/

Etymology: < first element of Cornwall (Old English Cornweallas = Corn-Welsh) + -ish suffix¹. The native equivalent was Kernûak, Kernewec, derivative of Kernóu, Pou Kernów (= pagus Cornubiæ) Llwyd, Cernow, Kernow (Williams), Welsh Cernyw, Cornwall: compare Breton Kernéô, Kerné, the district of Cornouaille in Armorica. These forms point to a proto-Celtic *Cornovjo-s, *Cornovja: compare medieval Latin Cornubia, whence Corˈnubian, Corˈnubic = Cornish. Ptolemy has Κορναούιοι, Roman sources Cornovii, as names of British tribes, though not in Cornwall. Probably derived < Celtic corn, cornu, ‘horn’, in sense of projecting corner or headland.
