Zarāfa, n. The giraffe or Giraffa camelopardalis is a ruminant quadruped found in Africa. The English word giraffe, as well as its European variants—including giraffa (Italian), girafa (Spanish), girafa (Portuguese), and girafe (French)—are all ultimately derived from the Arabic word zarāfah (زرافه). The giraffe has the largest heart of all land animals; it symbolizes “heart-to-heart” connection in Nonviolent Communication (NVC).
