雄
xióng
male
staminate; grand; imposing; powerful; mighty; person or state having great power and influence
arm/sound (厷) + bird (隹) = the mighty male
隹 depicts a short-tailed bird, and 雄 originally evoked a commanding male bird — the kind that dominates the flock. 厷 carries the sound xiōng/xióng; the bird radical anchors the idea of male vitality and dominance.

zhè zhī xióng niǎo de yǔ máo yán sè hěn xiān yàn。
