Where this word comes from

Inherited from Ottoman Turkish قره قاوس (kara kaves, “black comfrey”) and قره قاوز (kara kavuz). The second element قاوس (kaves) is ultimately from Proto-Slavic *gavęzь (“comfrey”), probably via a South Slavic language. The word was apparently later reinterpreted by folk etymology as kara (“black”) + kafes (“cage”).
