乖舛（上古壞反字書乖背也說文戾也從北從千下川耎反孟子奸交也許叔重注淮南子[舛-夕+(舛-夕)]相背也字書互也謂差𢆰不齊也或作蹐也）。

Contradictory and discordant (乖舛: the upper character has the fanqie *gu* + *huai*; character dictionaries say: "乖 means to turn one's back on/violate"; the *Shuowen* says: "Perverse/contrary"; it takes 北 and 千 as components; the lower character has the fanqie *chuan* + *ruan*; *Mencius* has "discordant crossing (奸交)"; Xu Shen's commentary on the *Huainanzi* says: "[舛-夕+(舛-夕)] means turning backs to each other"; character dictionaries say: "Mutual"; it means uneven and irregular (差𢆰); it is also written as 蹐).
