The word came from a small seedless raisin exported from southern Greece from the port of Corinth. The product became known as 'Raisins from Corinth' shortened to Corinth and the name Corinth eventually turned into Currant. This may well have been due to a mispronunciation of the French adopted word Corauntz, introduced into England in the 14th Century
