字源故事 (Origin Story)

“狮”字最早起源于外来语，源自梵语“सिंह (siṃha)”，古代中国没有狮子，是通过佛教经典和丝绸之路引入中国。字形上“狮”左侧为“犭”（形声旁，表示动物），右侧为“师”，与音有关，整体表示一种大型猛兽。The character '狮' originated from a foreign word, derived from the Sanskrit 'सिंह (siṃha)'. Ancient China had no lions naturally, so the concept was introduced via Buddhist scriptures and the Silk Road. The left component '犭' indicates an animal, and the right part '师' is for phonetic guidance. Together, it signified a ferocious large animal.

字形演变 (Character Evolution)

甲骨文 (Oracle Bone Script):
甲骨文时期还未出现“狮”字，因为中国本土无狮子，该动物尚未传入中国文化。 '狮' did not appear in Oracle Bone Script since lions were not in China and thus the character had not yet entered the written language.
金文 (Bronze Inscription):
金文时代亦未见“狮”字，该字为后起字，随着狮子的输入才衍生出来。 The character '狮' is also not found in bronze inscriptions as it was created later after lions were introduced.
小篆 (Small Seal Script):
小篆中首次出现了“狮”字，左为“犭”表动物，右为“师”作声旁，有象形和形声结合的意味。 In Small Seal Script, '狮' appears for the first time, with '犭' on the left for animals, and '师' on the right for the phonetic part. This combines pictographic and phonetic components.
隶书 (Clerical Script):
隶书中“狮”字结构趋于方正，笔画更加简化清晰，为现代字形奠定基础。 In Clerical Script, the structure of '狮' becomes more rectangular and the strokes are simplified, setting the foundation for the modern form.
楷书 (现代) (Regular Script (Modern)):
现代楷书中的“狮”字由“犭”和“师”组成，结构规范，直观表达其本义。 In modern Regular Script, '狮' consists of '犭' and '师', appearing balanced and clearly expressing its original meaning.
