脛踝(古文踁同胡定反字林脚胻也釋名脛一尋似林反小疋云四尺為仞曰尋倍尋曰常方言尋長也)。

脛踝 (in ancient script written 踁, pronounced [fanqie: 胡 + 定]; Zilin says it means the leg or shank. Shiming says: "A 脛 [shank] is one xún [eight feet] long; xún is [fanqie: 似 + 林]. The Xiaoya says that four chǐ make a rèn, which is called a xún; twice a xún is called a cháng. The Fangyan says that xún means long").
