項很（上學講反下痕墾反兩字並上聲字賈注國語云違戾怨恨也言很戾之人強項難迴名為項很從彳艮聲）。

Stiff-necked and perverse (項很: the first character has the fanqie x- + [j]iang [=xiàng]; the second character has the fanqie h- + [k]en [=hěn]; both are characters in the rising tone; Jia's commentary to the Guoyu says: 'Disobedient, resentful, and spiteful; it means an obstinate person with a stiff neck difficult to turn is called xiànghěn'; it is formed with chì [彳] and gèn [艮] as phonetic).
