Definition
A type of sea fish; a gurnard or similar marine fish.
Etymology
From Old French 'gournard', derived from Latin 'grunnius', from the verb 'grunire' meaning to grunt. Named for the grunting sound the fish makes when caught, similar to the modern 'gurnard.'
Kelly Says
Fish names are often onomatopoeia—gournards are named for the noise they make, just like 'grunion' and 'grunts'—and these grunting sounds actually come from their swim bladders vibrating when they're stressed.
