檮杌(上音桃下音五骨反杜注左傳檮杌五帝時四兇人也頑兇無所知貌也二字竝從木形聲字)。

檮杌 (the first character sounds like 桃 [táo]; the second character is *wu* + *gu* in fanqie [wù]; Du's commentary on the *Zuozhuan* says: '檮杌 was one of the four treacherous men during the time of the Five Thearchs; it describes an appearance of obstinate wickedness and utter ignorance'; both characters are phono-semantic characters with the wood radical).
