轅軶(上遠元反考工記云凡為轅三其輪崇二分其長二在前一在後也說文轅輈也下嚶革反鄭玄注考工記云軶轅端壓牛領木也說文二字並從車袁戹皆聲論作軛俗字輈音肘留反)。

Shaft and yoke (轅軶): the first character is [pronounced with the fanqie] 遠 + 元. The Kaogong ji says: 'Whenever making carriage shafts, triple the height of the wheels, and divide their length into two parts, with two in front and one behind.' The Shuowen says: 'Yuán is the carriage pole (zhōu).' The second character is 嚶 + 革. Zheng Xuan's Commentary to the Kaogong ji says: 'The yoke (è) is the wood at the tip of the shaft that presses on the ox's neck.' The Shuowen says: 'Both characters take the radical 車 (carriage), and 袁 and 戹 are respectively phonetic.' In the treatise it is written with the vulgar character 軛. Zhōu (輈) has the fanqie 肘 + 留.
