Grammatical information: m.Meaning: name of a sea-fish of the family of the breams (Sparidae), `Pagellus mormyrus' (Arist., Archestr.); details in Thompson Fishes s.v.Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]Etymology: Acc. to Strömberg Fischnamen 76 "prob. after the sound, which arises from its quick movement in the water".

Thompson Fishes s. v. (with extensive treatment) reminds of Arab. ṣabār, Copt. šabouri, name of a well known fish of the Nile, Tilapia nilotica. Phonetically closer is the Lyd.
