Etimologija (Anglų k.)

Pasiskolinta iš ispanų: carajo

In summary

Early 20th century, from Spanish carajo (literally “penis”), which is used as a vulgar intensifier. At first attested in the sense “gallop, maximum speed of a rider”, hence probably a humorous substitution for dated Karriere (“gallop, career”).
