Noun

IPA: [kɯ̟ɾo̞] Forms: [canonical] (ruby: (くろ)), kuro [romanization], [alternative, kanji, kyūjitai], [alternative, kanji]
Etymology: ⟨kuro₁⟩ → /kuro/ From Old Japanese, from Proto-Japonic *kuro. See also 黒(くろ)い (kuroi). Via root morpheme *kur, cognates include: * 涅(くり) (kuri, “black mud from the bed of a body of water”). * 暗(くら) (kura, “darkness, deception”), 蔵(くら), 倉(くら), 庫(くら) (kura, “(dark) storehouse”), and 暗(くら)い (kurai, “dark”). * classical verb 暮(く)る (kuru), modern 暮(く)れる (kureru, “to become dark; to near the end (of a day, year, life, etc.)”), 暗(く)れる, 眩(く)れる (kureru, “to become depressed, to become dreary of mood”), 暮(く)れ (kure, “dusk, nightfall, sunset”), and 呉(くれ) (kure, “China”, literally “land of the setting sun”). Possibly also cognate with Ainu kur (“shadow”) and Korean 구름 (gureum, “cloud”); compare also Japanese 雲(くも) (kumo, “cloud”), Korean 검— (geom-, “black”), and Ainu kunne (“black; dark”).
