About
The character 豹, representing the leopard, is a semantic-phonetic compound composed of the radical 豸, which classifies it as a beast, and the component 勺, which primarily indicates its pronunciation. This structural arrangement has consistently denoted the large feline species, with the radical conveying the animal category and the phonetic element offering a sound cue. Throughout its use, the character's core meaning has remained specifically tied to the leopard, without broadening or shifting to other significances.
