Kurae!

There's a word I keep hearing in DBZ. And the other night when I rewatched some of the battles with Valkyrie Ghost (in UFO Princess Valkyrie 2) I heard it once there, too.

It sounds to me like kurae and they shout it when tossing a big energy blast at someone. It's always translated as "Take this!" I presume it's the imperative of some verb, but I can't figure out what. Anyone have any idea what it is?

1 Sounds like this, perhaps, which would make it 食らえ, from the verb 食らう (to receive)?

2 That was definitely it. Thanks.
