Beating the breast (椎胷: the first [character] is *dr(yang)* + *l(wi)* in fanqie; derived from 木. The second [character] is *h(yok)* + *k(yowng)* in fanqie. 胷 means the chest. Beating the breast is the ritual [expression] of cutting grief and self-mutilation; derived from an abbreviation of 包, a phono-semantic character.)
