Etymology

[edit]

Variant of 廌 (OC dreʔ) (Guangyun; Schuessler, 2009). If true, see there for etymology.

Janhunen (2011) instead suggests that 豸 and 廌 possibly had denoted different animals, yet were confused so they would be used seemingly interchangeably to refer to the same range of vague folkloric and mythological beasts.

Valenti (2018) posits a possible punning link between 豸 (OC (d)reʔ) and 踟 (OC (d)re, “to walk hesitantly”).

This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “If not just a variant of 廌 (OC dreʔ), then might 豸 (OC dreʔ) be related to Tibetan དྲེད (dred, “bear”)? Old Chinese *-ʔ occasionally corresponds to Old Tibetan -d in these cognate sets: 我 (OC *ŋaːlʔ) vs. Tibetan ངེད (nged, “I; we”), 靡 (OC *mralʔ) vs. Tibetan མྱེད (myed, “not exist”), etc.”
