Etymology

Either from Latin ēruncāre, present active infinitive of ēruncō or from a + Latin runcāre, present active infinitive of runcō, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₃rewk-. Another theory proposes a Vulgar Latin *averruncāre (to distance that which is bad), which is less likely. Compare Aromanian aruc, arucari, Megleno-Romanian runc, Occitan arronçar.
