Probablemente, el origen de la palabra corazón viene, de acuerdo con Pictet, del sánscrito kurd que significa saltar, o sea que corazón significaría el que salta dentro del pecho.

Translation:

According to Pictet, the origin of the word corazón probably comes from the Sanskrit word kurd that means jump, that would mean that corazón is the one that jumps inside the chest.
