In Swedish, "tuta" is in fact a verb, meaning "to toot / blow"; Kuhač, who refers to Bénédict Pictet (1655-1724) as his source, mentions it, however, as a noun, unfortunately failing to explain the signification and relevance of the added (apparently Latin) terms (corum [accusative of corus [heart] ?] and canere [to sing]); NB¹: ➺ my remark to Taut; NB²: ➺ homonym (Basque country, Spain).
