猶豫 (hesitation; the former is yi/zhou fan; the latter is yu/ju fan; Qiesheng says: '猶豫 is a term for being unsettled'; Jixun says: 'The mind is doubtful'; the Book of Rites says: 'Divination by turtle shell and milfoil stalks is used to resolve suspicions and settle hesitations'; Fangyan says: 'Longxi calls a dog a 猶; hence the character 猶 has radical 犬 with 酋 phonetic'; Jia's commentary on Guoyu says: '豫 is the name of a beast shaped like an elephant'; Shuowen jiezi says: 'Composed of 象 with 予 phonetic').
