cardstock

Alternative spelling of card stock.

Word Origin Cardstock is thick paper, combining card (from Greek khartēs 'papyrus leaf') and stock (from Proto-Germanic stukkaz 'tree trunk, log' — something sturdy). So it's paper as sturdy as a log. Card also gives us chart (originally a map on paper), charter (a written document), and discard (throw away a card). Stock gives us stocky (sturdy like a trunk) and stockpile.
