Annotations
[edit | edit source]Etymology: from OF corage, from VL *coraticum, from L cor "heart," which remains a common metaphor for inner strength. In ME, used broadly for "what is in one's mind or thoughts", hence "bravery", but also "wrath, pride, confidence, lustiness", or any sort of inclination. Replaced OE ellen.
