Atlantic cod

noun

Etymology

Originally known as cod. The Atlantic was added later to distinguish this species from the related but distinct Pacific cod.

Definitions

  1. A sea fish, the Gadus morhua.

    • Basques were not the first to cure cod. Centuries earlier, the Vikings had traveled from Norway to Iceland to Greenland to Canada, and it is not a coincidence that this is the exact range of the Atlantic cod.
