"Zerbis" meaning in Latin

See Zerbis in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Proper name

IPA: /ˈzer.bis/ [Classical-Latin], [ˈd̪͡z̪ɛrbɪs̠] [Classical-Latin] Forms: Zerbis [genitive], no-table-tags [table-tags], Zerbis [nominative, singular], Zerbis [genitive, singular], Zerbī [dative, singular], Zerbem [accusative, singular], Zerbe [ablative, singular], Zerbis [singular, vocative]
Etymology: Likely related to the Great Zab and Little Zab rivers, a name already attested as Akkadian [script needed] (Zabu) and thus probably from a Semitic language, though the semantic identification of Pliny’s Zerbis with these is problematic and may reflect an error on his part. Etymology templates: {{cog|akk|tr=Zabu}} Akkadian [script needed] (Zabu), {{der|la|sem|-}} Semitic Head templates: {{la-proper noun|Zerbis<3>|g=m}} Zerbis m sg (genitive Zerbis); third declension Inflection templates: {{la-ndecl|Zerbis<3>}}
