      Etymology 1

      [edit]

      From Proto-Italic *karzō, from the Proto-Indo-European root *(s)kers- (to comb wool), extended from *(s)ker- (to cut). Compare Lithuanian kar̃šti (combs, cards), Latvian kā̀rst (combs, cards), Old High German scerran (to scratch). Varro falsely connects this with careō, possibly because the word had already gone extinct in his time, with the only reminiscence being carmen (card for flax or wool) which was the evident derivational base of the rather common carminō (I card).
