Sumxu

释义与例句

n.
  1. 1.

    A possibly mythical, long-haired, lop-eared type of cat or cat-like creature, now considered extinct, if it ever actually existed.

词源

From a Portuguese rendering of Chinese 松鼠 (sōngshǔ, “squirrel”, literally “pine rat”). The name sumxu originally described the yellow-throated marten (Martes flavigula), but a series of mistranslations caused the name to be applied to the alleged cat or cat-like animal.
