嬉戲（上喜冝反考聲嬉美也悅也遊戲也說文從女喜聲下希義反毛詩傳曰戲逸豫也說文從戈虛聲音欣衣反經從虛作戲非也不成字也）。

嬉戲, playing and sporting (the first [character is pronounced with the fanqie] 喜 + 冝; the Kaosheng states: "Xi (嬉) means fine; pleasant; to frolic"; the Shuowen states it has the woman radical and xi (喜) phonetic; the second [character is pronounced with the fanqie] 希 + 義; the Mao Commentary to the Odes states: "Xi (戲) means leisure and recreation"; the Shuowen states it has the halberd (戈) radical and xu (虛) phonetic, with the pronunciation 欣 + 衣; the sūtra writes it with the tiger (虍) radical as 戲, which is incorrect and not a proper character).
