carpe

common noun

Syllable Decomposition

carpe

from Late Latin carpa ('a type of fish from the Danube') attested by an example from Cassiodorus; probably borrowed from a language of Eastern Europe, perhaps through Gothic; the absence of palatalization of ca to cha is explained more by the late date of the word's penetration than by a borrowing from Occitan.
