Lol. There's no natural word for it in the Igbo language simply because it didn't exist in the olden days. If I were to construct a word for it, however, I would say "akpa umo", meaning "bag of air".

Congrats on the new moderator position, by the way.
My friend you are dead wrong, besides you have no right to construct any word in Igbo Language. Now know this, Igbo Language is a Dynamic Language, when new things come up, Professors in Igbo Linguistics bring out new coinages for them and when they do, who are you to say that they are "wrong"?. Just the way The "IFEJIOKU" Festival in Igbo Land was coined into The "NEW YAM" Festival by English Linguists and you don't say they are wrong, so do we have Igbo words for most of the new inventions of the last century like Aeroplane, Microphone, Bomb, Jeep, Smart Phone, Internet, Computer Etc. For example that of Computer is "IGWE ORU NNU OLU" I know you have not heard that before. You better come back home and learn your fathers Language. NDEWO! NWANNE M.
