Etymology

Borrowed from or related to Middle Low German kūren (“to lurk”, originally "to crouch, bend, sit hunched over"), whence also English cower, according to Pokorny, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *gew- (“to curve, bend”), see also Proto-Germanic *kuddô (“shell, pod”).[1] Comparable to Swedish kura (“to huddle, cower”).

Verb

kúra (weak verb, third-person singular past indicative kúrði, supine kúrt)

  1. (intransitive) to snuggle
