Cultural note

In ancient Chinese texts, animals like 豙 were often mentioned in the context of nature and philosophy, reflecting the deep connection between humans and the natural world in traditional Chinese culture.

Memory tip

Imagine a 'wild' animal with large ears that looks like a rabbit. The character '豙' resembles a rabbit in shape, and the '耳' (ear) radical can help you remember it has to do with a creature from the wild, linking the sound 'yì' to the image of a wild creature.
