24.276

囹圄(上歷丁反下魚舉反鄭注禮記云所以禁守繫者也說文囹獄也圄守也二字並從口令吾皆聲口音韋)。

Prison (the first character is *li* + *ding* [líng]; the second is *yu* + *ju* [yǔ]. Zheng's commentary on the Liji says: "That which is used to detain, guard, and bind people." The Shuowen says: "*Ling* is a jail; *yu* is to guard." Both characters are categorized under 'enclosure' [囗] with *ling* [令] and *wu* [吾] phonetic. 'Enclosure' [囗] is pronounced *wei* [wéi]).
