jerbo
Finnish
Etymology
Learned borrowing from English jerboa, itself from either Arabic جَرْبُوع (jarbūʿ) or يَرْبُوع (yarbūʿ). This term was proposed in 2008 by a committee that made a comprehensive proposal for Finnish names of all mammals. Before that there was no single equivalent to "jerboa".
