coricare
Appearance
Italian
[edit]Alternative forms
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Inherited from Latin collocāre (“set in place”). The more conservative variant colcare led to corcare through the widespread rhotacism of preconsonantal /l/. The epenthetic /i/ may have been inserted by analogy with the similar-sounding caricare ~ carcare (“to load, stow”). Doublet of collocare, which was borrowed from Latin.
