"zebra" meaning in English

See zebra in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈzɛbɹə/ [Commonwealth, UK], /ˈziːbɹə/ [British, Canadian, English, US, traditional] Audio: en-uk-zebra.ogg [UK], en-us-zebra.ogg [US] Forms: zebra [plural], zebras [plural]
Rhymes: (UK, Commonwealth) -ɛbɹə, -iːbɹə Etymology: 1600; borrowed from Italian zebra, from Portuguese zebra, zebro (“zebra”), from Old Galician-Portuguese enzebro, ezebra, azebra (“wild ass”), from earlier cebrario (882), ezebrario (897), from Vulgar Latin *eciferus, from Latin equiferus (“wild horse”) (Pliny), from equus (“horse”) + ferus (“wild”). While the word was traditionally pronounced with a long vowel in the first syllable in standard English, during the twentieth century a vowel shift occurred in regions of England, with the shortening of the first vowel. This pronunciation is now used throughout the UK and most Commonwealth nations. The long-vowel pronunciation remains standard in Canadian and American English. (referee): In reference to the black and white striped shirts they wear.

  "etymology_text": "1600; borrowed from Italian zebra, from Portuguese zebra, zebro (“zebra”), from Old Galician-Portuguese enzebro, ezebra, azebra (“wild ass”), from earlier cebrario (882), ezebrario (897), from Vulgar Latin *eciferus, from Latin equiferus (“wild horse”) (Pliny), from equus (“horse”) + ferus (“wild”).\nWhile the word was traditionally pronounced with a long vowel in the first syllable in standard English, during the twentieth century a vowel shift occurred in regions of England, with the shortening of the first vowel. This pronunciation is now used throughout the UK and most Commonwealth nations. The long-vowel pronunciation remains standard in Canadian and American English.\n(referee): In reference to the black and white striped shirts they wear.",

This pronunciation is now used throughout the UK and most Commonwealth nations. The long-vowel pronunciation remains standard in Canadian and American English.\n(referee): In reference to the black and white striped shirts they wear.",
