Semantic entry: 4.14
Semantic domains: Animals
Subdomains: Animals
Definition: largest of the great cats, often about 2.8 m from nose to tip of tail, standing as high as 1 m at the shoulder; pale yellowish brown in color; adult males have a mane around the neck and shoulders that is darker than the rest of their fur; Panthera leo; unclean animal; associated with aggression and strength
Notes: In some languages it may be important to use a descriptive phrase such as ‘a very large cat-like animal,’ though it will be important to try to make some distinction between ‘lion’ and ‘leopard’ (4.13: πάρδαλις). If necessary, some more extensive identification by description may be employed in a glossary.
