Compare Welsh ceirios, Breton kerez.

Hungarian

Etymology

From the same Proto-Finno-Ugric *kerä (“round, turning; to turn, twist”) stem as kerek, kerít, kerül + -s (obsolete frequentative verb-forming suffix). For the -s suffix, compare olvas (“to read”). Cognates include Finnish kierä (“twisted”), kiero (“twisted”).[1][2] For the change of meaning, compare kerget (“to chase, pursue”, possibly related) and Latin ambīre (“to go round; solicit, strive”) and circāre (“to go about, traverse, wander”) → Italian cercare (“to look for”).[3]
