Etymologie (Engels)

Related to Portuguese carapaça and French carapace, ultimately of unknown, likely substrate origin. Another theory traces it to Latin capa (“cape, cloak”).
Compare also calabaza (“pumpkin, gourd”), Catalan carabassa, carbassa (“pumpkin”), and Ancient Greek κάραβος (kárabos, “a kind of beetle or crustacean; vessel”); also galápago (“kind of turtle”).
