Etymology
The word 'squirrel' originated from the Middle English word 'squirel', which came from the Anglo-French word 'esquirel'. The Old French term 'escurel' is derived from the Latin word 'sciurus', which in turn is borrowed from the Greek word 'skiouros', meaning 'shadow-tailed'. Squirrels have been known for their agility and bushy tails, making them a popular subject in folklore and children's stories.
