曲撩（了蕭反廣雅云撩取也理也案經義曲撩合是戰具非取理之義也檢字書並同皆與經乖意謂此當是鉤戟似矛而刃曲如鉤今之鉤槍也）。

曲撩 ("hooked pikes"; [the latter] fanqie: 了 + 蕭. The Guangya says: "Liao (撩) means to take, or to manage." According to the meaning in the sūtra, qu liao must refer to a weapon of war, not the meaning of taking or managing. When consulting dictionaries, all give the same [definitions], which diverge from the sūtra. I consider that this must be a hooked halberd, resembling a spear with a curved blade like a hook—the hook-spear of today).
