Currance

/ˈkʌrəns/ noun

Definition

An archaic or dialect form referring to small dried berries, particularly currants, or the current flow of water or air.

Etymology

From Old French 'corinthe' meaning from Corinth, where small dried grapes were imported; also influenced by 'current' from Latin 'currens' meaning flowing.

Kelly Says

The word 'currance' blends two meanings—the fruit named after Corinth and the physical sense of flowing—showing how medieval English speakers made poetic connections between similar-sounding words.
