Proto-Slavic
Etymology
From Proto-Balto-Slavic *kúrnas or *kúrˀnas, cognate with Latvian kur̃ns (“deaf”). Traditionally derived from Proto-Indo-European *(s)ker- (“to cut”) + *-nъ, but in view of Sanskrit कीर्ण (kīrṇa, “injured, hurt”), Avestan 𐬐𐬀𐬭𐬆𐬥𐬀 (karəna, “deaf”), origin from *(s)kerH- (“to crop, to injure”) has been proposed instead.
