▪ DRS 1 (1994): Sem *ʔarnab‑ ‘lièvre’
▪ Lipiński1997#30.10 thinks the word can be segmented into root plus ‎AfrAs “postpositive determinant” *‑b “for wild and dangerous animals”, cf. also dubb ‘bear’, ḏiʔb‑ ‘wolf’, ḏubāb‑ ‘flies’, kalb ‘dog’, ʕankabūt‑ ‘spider’, ʕaqrab‑ ‘scorpion’, ġurāb‑ ‘crow, raven’, ṯaʕlab‑ ‘fox’.
