Surmised only from Old French carpe, Italian carpa. Compare Old High German karpho (from which German Karpfen). Suggestions as to the further origin of the supposed Gothic word are speculative. It has been compared with Sanskrit शफर (śaphara), Welsh carp, Lithuanian šapalas. However, the un-shifted Germanic k suggests that the word entered Indo-European languages through Germanic and is ultimately from a non-Indo-European substrate native to the Alpine region and Danube basin. === Noun === carpa f (genitive carpae); first declension (Late Latin, Medieval Latin) a carp (fish) ==== Declension ==== First-declension noun. ==== Descendants ==== === References === "carpa", in Charles du Fresne du Cange, Glossarium Mediæ et Infimæ Latinitatis (augmented edition with additions by D.
