Meanings and usage

noun: boar (breeding boar), lecherous man (colloquial)
豬哥

Multiple senses share this Teochew reading across a noun block (breeding boar, lecherous man, male adulterer, Zhu Bajie, derogatory term for Moro Muslims) and an adjective block (lecherous); the base literal 'boar' sense was chosen but the colloquial 'womanizer' sense is equally well attested for Southern Min varieties.
