Etymology
From Late Latin becerrus, from Iberian *ribiccu, possibly a metathesis of *(i)bicirru (“chamois”), ultimately borrowed from the same Alpine Proto-Indo-European language that produced Latin ibex and camocis (see English chamois). Cognate with Old Spanish bezerro. See: Latin Nouns '
ibex', English Nouns '
chamois', Old Spanish Nouns '
bezerro'.
