An archaic or dialectal term, possibly Scottish or Irish in origin, with unclear modern meaning.
Likely derives from Gaelic or Celtic language roots given the '-och' ending common in Scottish English, though documented usage is rare and meaning uncertain.
The '-och' ending (like in 'loch') is a linguistic fingerprint of Celtic languages that snuck into English through centuries of Scottish and Irish contact—'coranoch' shows how languages leave etymological breadcrumbs across borders.
