𥄖響（上忻乙反俗字也正作𥄖說文作[八/(囗@(俎-且))]血脉在肉中[八/(囗@(俎-且))][八/(囗@(俎-且))]而動故從肉從八八者分別也從十者響遍十方後人移八於十上作肸又變為兮作肹下鄉兩反應聲也會意字也）。

𥄖響 (The first character has the fanqie xin1-yi3, which is a vulgar character; the correct form is 𥄖. The Shuowen jiezi writes it as [八/(囗@(俎-且))]: blood vessels move throbbing within the flesh, hence it is derived from ròu [肉] and bā [八]. Bā means differentiation; derived from shí [十] means the sound reverberates throughout the ten directions. Later people moved bā above shí to make 肸, and then changed it to xī [兮] to make 肹. The second character has the fanqie xiang1-liang3, meaning a resounding noise: an ideogrammic compound).
