6.223

猶豫(上音由下余度反禮記云卜筮所以决嫌疑定猶豫是也字書云猶豫者不定之辭也解字如前第三百二十五卷中具釋)。

猶豫 (hesitation: the first character has the pronunciation 由; the second character is [pronounced with the fanqie] 余度. The Book of Rites says: 'Divination by tortoise shell and stalks is used to resolve suspicions and settle hesitations.' Character dictionaries say: 'Yóuyù (猶豫) is a term for being undecided.' The character analysis is as already fully explained in fascicle 325.)
