köken: Borrowed from Low German robbe, rubbe, in Middle Low German meaning “rabbit." Of uncertain ultimate origin; compare English rabbit, French rabot (“plane”). Or, possibly related to Latvian rups (“coarse, rough”), referring to the whiskers. Also compared is the personal name Robbe. Has also been compared to English rub, referring to seals' movements, but this is unlikely.
köken: Inherited from Old Spanish cabrito. Analyzable as cabra (“goat”) + -ito; may have originally corresponded to a Vulgar Latin or Late Latin caprītus (attested in Salic Law), as the perfect passive participle of a verb *caprīre (“give birth (of goats)”), from Latin caper (which would have normally yielded *cabrido), but was influenced by the Spanish diminutive suffix -ito (from Late Latin -ittus).…
köken: First attested in the seventeenth century. Ultimately derived from Old French molle, by-form of modle, an old (11th century) borrowing from Latin modulus (“measure”). Doublet of module and modulus.
