呪詛(𦵔䟽反鄭注周禮云盟詛主於要誓大事曰盟小事曰詛詛謂呪之使敗也考聲云呪罵也或作詛謯謀四形用皆同)。

Curse (詛 has the fanqie 𦵔䟽 [zhào + shū]; Zheng's commentary on the Rites of Zhou says: 'Covenants and curses are focused on oaths and pledges; major matters are called covenants (盟), and minor matters are called curses (詛); to curse means to invoke spells to bring ruin upon them'; the Kaosheng says: 'To curse and revile; also written in the four forms 詛, 謯, or 謀, all used identically').
