Etymology
Related to coruscus (“vibrating, flashing”). Of uncertain origin according to the TLL; perhaps related to Ancient Greek κορύσσω (korússō, “equip with helmet”) and κορύπτω (korúptō, “headbutt”). Compare Ancient Greek σκαίρω (skaírō, “hop, dance”), ἀσκαρίζω (askarízō, “throb”), σκιρτάω (skirtáō, “leap, bound”).
