Catalan

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

Inherited from Latin crusta (bark, crust, shell) (compare Occitan crosta, French croûte, Spanish costra), from Proto-Indo-European *krustós (hardened), from *krews- (to form a crust, begin to freeze). The /ɔ/ is unexpected and perhaps due to influence from other words with similar meanings.
