单词 crucian
释义

cruciancrusiann.

/ˈkruːʃən/
Forms: Also 1700s crusion.
Etymology: Formed with suffix -an suffix, and accommodated spelling, from earlier or dialect Low German karusse, karuse, karutze (modern German karausche), compare Dutch karuts (Kilian), Danish karudse, South Swedish karussa (Grimm). An older Middle German form was karas, karaz, corresponding to Russian, Polish, Bohemian karas, whence zoological specific name carassius. The ultimate source is supposed to be Latin coracīnus, < Greek κορακῖνος a black fish like a perch, found in the Nile; but the actual history of the word in the modern languages is obscure.
A species of fish, a native of Central Europe, now naturalized in England, of a deep yellow colour, also called crucian carp, and (when lean) German carp or Prussian carp; it is closely allied to the Carp, but with the Goldfish is now generally placed in a distinct genus Carassius, being C. carassius.
