虎狼（上呼古反說文云山獸君也淮南子云虎嘯谷風生也從人虍聲虍音呼虎爪似人故從人或作[虎-儿+八]廟諱不成字又作𧆞俗變非體下魯堂反說文云似犬白頰銳頭爾雅曰牝狼其子獥也獥音胡狄反）。

虎狼 (The upper character is 呼 + 古 [hǔ]; the Shuowen says: "The king among mountain beasts"; the Huainanzi says: "When the tiger roars, the valley wind arises"; it is formed from 人 (person) with 虍 as phonetic; 虍 is pronounced 呼 [hū]; because the tiger's paws resemble human hands, it is formed with 人; some write [虎-儿+八], a taboo-avoidance form which does not make a proper character; another writes 𧆞, a popular altered form that is irregular. The lower character is 魯 + 堂 [láng]; the Shuowen says: "Resembles a dog with white jowls and a sharp head"; the Erya says: "The female wolf is called bìng; her whelp is called an xiào"; 獥 is pronounced 胡 + 狄 [xí]).
