Noun

IPA: [kɯ̟ɾo̞] Forms: kuro [romanization]
Etymology: ⟨kuro₁⟩ → /kuro/ From Old Japanese (see 黒い (kuroi) for more); in turn, from Proto-Japonic *kuro. Via root morpheme *kur, cognates include: * 涅 (kuri, “black mud from the bed of a body of water”) * 暗 (kura, “darkness; deception”), 蔵, 倉, 庫 (kura, “[dark] storehouse”), and 暗い (kurai, “dark”) * classical verb 暮る (kuru), modern 暮れる (kureru, “to become dark; to near the end [of a day, of a year, of a life”), and 暗れる, 眩れる (kureru, “to become depressed, to become dreary of mood”) Possibly also cognate with Ainu kur (“shadow”) and Korean 구름 (gureum, “cloud”); compare also Japanese 雲 (kumo, “cloud”), Korean 검— (geom-, “black”), and Ainu kunne (“black; dark”).
