It's what in Spanish, we call "animation, cartoons" specifically if they are of American origin. It has a remote Greek etymology in 967; 945; 961; 964; 951; 962; ( cartes "papyrus" ), which was taken by Latin as letter, ae and from there passed to Romance languages such as Italian cartone or French carton, already with the meaning of "print, drawing on a cardboard or sheet" (especially for design of tapestries), which was how English incorporated it in the seventeenth century and then named the caricatures in the nineteenth century, and already in the XX as an abbreviated form of animated cartoon.
