筋緩（上謹銀反說文筋者肉之力也從竹竹物之多筋者經作䈥俗字也下胡管反鄭注考工記緩寬也爾雅云舒也賈注國語遲也說文從糸音覓爰音袁聲也）。

Jin-huan (筋緩) (The first character has the fanqie jin + yin. The Shuowen says: 'Sinews (筋) are the strength of the flesh. It derives from zhu (竹, bamboo), as bamboo is a thing with many sinews.' The sūtra writes it as 䈥, which is a vulgar character. The second character has the fanqie hu + guan. Zheng [Xuan]'s commentary on the Kaogongji says: 'Huan (緩) means loose.' The Erya says: 'It means relaxed.' Jia [Kui]'s commentary on the Guoyu says: 'It means tardy.' The Shuowen says: 'It derives from mi (糸); mi has the pronunciation mi (覓). Yuan (爰) is the phonetic component; yuan has the pronunciation yuan (袁)').
