Vietnamese
Etymology
chúa (“lord”) + sơn lâm (“the wilderness”).
Pronunciation
Noun
chúa sơn lâm
- king of the jungle (the title for the tiger)
Usage notes
- This title may also be inaccurately used for the lion, which is also dubbed "king of the jungle", even though the nowadays better-known lion population in Africa and the Asiatic population, historically better-known to the Indosphere and Sinosphere, do not really live in jungles but at most only dry forests, rainforests being one of many natural barriers to lions' dispersal.
