"karst" meaning in English

See karst in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /kɑːst/ [Received-Pronunciation], /kɑɹst/ [General-American] Audio: en-au-karst.ogg Forms: karsts [plural]
enPR: käst [Received-Pronunciation], kärst [General-American] Rhymes: -ɑː(ɹ)st Etymology: Borrowed from German Karst. The German term and the Slovene placename Kras (the Karst Plateau) are from Proto-Slavic *korsъ, from Italo-Dalmatian carsus (cf. Italian carso), possibly from Proto-Indo-European *ker- (“hard; rock”). More at Karst. The metathesis in the Slovene term precludes German borrowing from Slovene.
