## Translingual
### Alternative forms

There are typographical differences in this character in different fonts – in Japanese printing, the last two strokes may connect to the top stroke, as in right of 衣, while in handwriting and many other fonts, those strokes connect to the central curving stroke.
Depending on the font, the character 家 (Japanese) / 家 (Traditional Chinese) may also have either of these variations.

## Chinese
### Glyph origin

Historical forms of the character 豕 :
| Shang | Western Zhou | Shuowen Jiezi (compiled in Han) | Liushutong (compiled in Ming) |
| Oracle bone script | Bronze inscriptions | Small seal script | Transcribed ancient scripts |
Pictogram (象形) – a pig. Compare 亥, 𢑓 (male pig), and 豖 (castrated male pig). See also the original version on oracle bones of 敢.
Related to 㒸, in which however the pig is a phonetic component.

### Etymology

Possibly from Austroasiatic (Schuessler, 2007). Compare Proto-Mon-Khmer *liik ~ *lik (“pig”) and Mon ကၠိက် (kloik, “pig”). Also occurs in the Cai-Long languages, from which Hölzl (2021) derives the name Ta-Li for the aforementioned language subgroup.

### Definitions

豕
* (obsolete) pig; boar
    From: The Classic of Poetry, c. 11th – 7th centuries BCE, translated based on James Legge's version
    Yǒu shǐ báidí, zhēng shè bō yǐ. [Pinyin]
    There are many swine, with their trotters white, wading through the waves.
    From: Mozi, c. 4th century BCE
    Zhì rǎng rén quǎn shǐ jī tún zhě, qí bùyì yòu shèn rù rén yuánpǔ qiè táolǐ. Shì hégù yě? Yǐ kuī rén yù duō, qí bùrén zī shèn, zuì yì hòu. [Pinyin]
    As to seizing dogs, pigs, chickens, and young pigs from another, it is even more unrighteous than to steal peaches and plums from someone's orchard. Why? Because it causes others to suffer more, and it is more malevolent and culpable.
