Etymology
Possibly from Proto-Indo-European *kers- (“to scratch, scrape, rub, card”), cognate with Middle Low German harsch (“hairy”), Russian короста (korosta, “scab”), Old Church Slavonic краста (krasta), Lithuanian karsiu (“to comb”). This root may itself be a metathesis of *kes-r-, *kser- (cf. *ksen-), from *kes-. See: Russian Nouns '
короста'.
