Corn as we know it, Is actually the Indian crop Maize and was not available in Europe until after Columbus and the Europeans came to the new world.
There was no “Corn” in Rashis time.
Rashi probably spoke Old French and maybe Old Spanish which are different than modern French or Spanish.
If Rashi spoke english it was old english which is unintelligble to the modern english speaker
