As quash appears to come from quassre, to shatter) of cassre, from Latin cassus it should be possible to quash a squash or grapes for that matter, though more usually they get squashed.
squelch-quashed, but no quelch-squashed, although in one of its meanings squelch is synonymous to quench , which is quelch but for one letter difference.![]()
