互相（上胡故反顧野王云互謂更遞也考聲云互猶交互也說文云互可以收繩也象形字中象手所推握也古文作䇘同用也）。

Mutually (互相: the first character [互] is fanqie 胡故 [hù]. Gu Yewang says: "互 means alternating and successive." The Kaosheng says: "互 is like interacting." The Shuowen says: "A frame that can wind ropes." It is a pictographic character, depicting hands pushing and grasping in the middle. The ancient script writes it as 䇘, used identically).
