鶺鴒（上精亦反下歷丁反毛詩傳云鶺鴒雍渠也飛則鳴行則搖尾也文字典說似青雀也二字並從鳥脊令皆聲）。

鶺鴒 ('wagtail'): the first character is [pronounced] with the fanqie 精亦; the second character is with the fanqie 歷丁. The Mao Commentary on the Shijing says: 'The 鶺鴒 (jílíng) is the yongqu; it cries when flying and wags its tail when walking.' The Wenzidian shuo says: 'It resembles a blue sparrow.' Both characters take 鳥 (bird) as semantic component, with 脊 and 令 respectively as phonetic components.
