Wymawiane jako (IPA)

[ˈkɔr.bɪs]

Unknown. Some refer it to Latin curvus, others to Ancient Greek κόλπος (kólpos) or from Proto-Indo-European *(s)kerbʰ- (“to turn (around), wind”) (cognate with scirpus); it could be also a Semitic borrowing, comparing Ge'ez ከረቦ (käräbo, “basket”), Amharic ከረቦ (käräbo, “basket”), considering the variant Ge'ez ከበሮ (käbäro, “basket”) possibly related to Ge'ez ከፈር (käfär, “basket”), Tigrinya ከፈር (käfär, “basket”), Arabic قَفِير (qafīr, “basket”). Alternatively, possibly borrowed from early Proto-West Germanic *korb, from Proto-Germanic *kurbaz, from earlier *krebô (“basket”), from Proto-Indo-European *gerbʰ- (“bundle”).
