犀牛（上音西爾雅曰犀似豕郭璞注云似水牛豬頭大腹庳脚脚有三蹄色黑三角一角頂上一角額上一角鼻上鼻上者即食角也小而不橢好食棘亦有一角者從牛尾省聲經文作\[尸@丰\]誤也橢音他果反）。

> Rhinoceros (犀牛: the first character is pronounced 西 \[xī\]. The Erya says: "The rhinoceros resembles a swine." Guo Pu's commentary says: "It resembles a water buffalo, with the head of a pig, a large belly, short legs, three hooves on each foot, black in color, and three horns: one horn atop the head, one horn on the forehead, and one horn on the nose. The one on the nose is the horn used for feeding; it is small and not pointed, and \[the animal\] likes eating thorns. There is also a one-horned variety." It is formed with 牛 \[ox\] as the radical and the abbreviated form of 尾 as the phonetic component. In scripture texts it is written as \[尸@丰\], which is an error. 橢 has the fanqie 他果 \[ta + guo / tuǒ\].)
