Aran bi.
Etymology
From Proto-Basque *araN, further origin uncertain. Some compare this word to Aragonese arañón, Catalan aranyó, Spanish arándano, all of which presuppose an unattested Vulgar Latin *agraniō. Others see a Celtic origin behind this term: compare Irish airne, Welsh eirin, both from Proto-Celtic *agrinyā.
