• cyrs

From Proto-Celtic *korks; related to Cornish kors (“reeds”), Breton korz (“reeds”), and further to Old Irish curchais (“reedbed”), and perhaps to Latin cārex (“sedge”).^[1] Cameron connects Proto-Indo-European *(s)kerbʰ- (“to turn (around), wind”), on the basis of Latin scirpus, reasoning that reeds and bulrushes were formerly used to make ropes.^[2] However, this root gave Middle Irish corb (“wagon(-seat)”),^[3] making it phonetically unlikely.
