Noun

IPA: [ħaˈmoːʀ] [Tiberian-Hebrew], /χaˈmoʁ/ [Modern-Israeli-Hebrew]
Etymology: From Proto-Semitic *ḥimār- (“donkey”). Cognate with Arabic حِمَار (ḥimār). Called after their reddish-brown to gray color, which they share with clay, whose Hebrew equivalent חֹמֶר (khómer) originates from the same root. For a similar etymology, cf. Spanish burro (“donkey”) from Latin burrus (“red, reddish-brown”).
