Etymology 1

From Proto-Indo-European *kel- (“to hit, strike”) thence also Latvian kalt. From a parallel form of the root Proto-Indo-European *kol- in its reduced grade Proto-Indo-European *kl̥- > Proto-Baltic *kul- whence this term. Cognate with Lithuanian kùlti.

Verb

kult (intransitive, 1st conjugation, present kuļu, kul, kuļ, past kūlu)

Etymology 2
