Etymology

Phono-semantic compound (形聲 /形声, OC *mraːɡ): semantic 豸 + phonetic 莫 (OC *maːɡ). Sense of tapir since Qing and Republican eras due to a misinterpretation of a chimera of the same name attributed to Bai Juyi and further transmitted by Su Song to the Compendium of Materia Medica (1596) made known to Jean-Pierre Abel-Rémusat in 1824.
