41.169

椎打(直追反說文擊也經從追作槌非也音墜蠶箔柱也經文非此義盖是筆授者寡聞不識字也打字從扌)。

椎打 "Beat with a mallet" (Pronounced zhi-zhui [chui]. The Shuowen jiezi says: "To strike." The scripture follows 追 to make 槌, which is incorrect; that is pronounced zhui, the post of a silkworm frame; the scripture text does not have this meaning. This is likely because the scribes taking dictation were ill-informed and did not recognize the characters. The character 打 is formed from 扌 'hand').
