Etimología (English)

In summary

Inherited from Old Spanish cozer, from Late Latin cocere, from Latin coquere. Cognate with English cook. Some conjugated forms of the verb were reformed through analogy with the infinitive; in older Spanish, the forms cueza and cuezo were cuega and cuego (< Late Latin cocam, cocō), cocí was coxe (< Latin coxī), and the past participle was cocho (< Latin coctus).
