Churrus

/ˈtʃɜːrəs/ noun

Definition

Possibly a plural form or variant of 'churr'; or potentially a term from another language adopted into English with unclear modern usage.

Etymology

Either from English 'churr' with a Latinate plural suffix '-us,' or possibly from another language. The word is extremely rare in modern English and its exact origin and meaning are difficult to determine.

Kelly Says

Words like 'churrus' remind us that the history of English is full of dead ends and forgotten attempts—someone tried to make 'churr' sound more Latin or official, and the word just never took off!
