Actually it should be {fu'irmlatu}; {mla} is the rafsi of {mlana}, and 
{u'imla} is an irregular formation. That's for "copycat"; "cheetah" is 
{ja'urtirxu}.

Some genetic researchers were studying Acinonyx jubatus to find out why he had 
a high abnormal sperm count. They gave a group of these animals a 
histocompatibility (tissue-type) test.
"This is singular," observed one to the other. "Every one of these cats gave 
the same answers."
"Aw," drawled the other, "they're all a bunch of cheetahs!"
